16 rows selected.
 
How do I modify this SQL to find out the last 3 invoiceDATE for each customer 
without using PL/SQL?
 
CUSTOMER_N INVOICEDA
---------- ---------
1137065    18-AUG-06
1137065    21-AUG-06
1137065    22-AUG-06

1137599    22-AUG-06
1137599    23-AUG-06
1137599    23-AUG-06
 
Thanks,
 
Roger
