there is some confusion with the question. My question is how to always get the last month of the data? The job was set to run on 2010/1/15, then I need to get 2009/12 in the where clause.

Hi,I am trying to modify a query with where clause like '&&year%%month%'to retrieve all the data by each month of the year. I have managed this query to set up automatically run on the 15th of the month without any problem until it turned the year of 2010.I used select substr(add_months(sysdate,-1),5,2) from dual to collect the month.and select substr(sysdate,1,4) from dual to get the year.The problem is I can't get the data on this month cause I will generate the date like '201012%'.Do you know how to handle this? Using if statement? if the month is 12, then the year should be -1? I am not sure how to accomplish this.Thanks, Joan
