    I am trying to view data for past one year ...Don't know whats wrong with the following:

    select ProdMonth ,ProdYear from Production

    where DATEADD(yyyy,-1,getdate())

    Kindly advise

    You will need to compare some data column to the calculated date one year ago.

    ....where DATECOLUMN >= DATEADD(yyyy,-1,getdate())

    This is one of the biggest reasons why I try to discourage people from saving parts of dates in separate columns.

    What is the datatype of the ProdYear and ProdMonth columns?

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
