How do I get the date field (type date) to group by month for my year-end ledger balance? The ledger entries are recorded by day, month, and year. I am using Oracle Developer/Report.
Thank you for any help on this.

Dear Dov,
U can use simple substr function to cut month from date field. Like
select .... from... where...group by substr(datefield,4,7)
If can/ cannot solve ur problem in this way let me know.
Thanks
Robin
