Hi Sambhaji,
Correct me if I am wrong ,
In the above query I think he will able to add 10 or 20 day to the variable or the column he want to and COL1 is just a sample column name if there is some criteria of doing the operation. Thats just the sample one

How would the posted query know about 10 or 20?
Please be much more careful when posting suggestions/solutions. Incomplete/incorrect info only makes things harder for the person who asked the question. |
