I need a query that gets the value from the latest date in a period, in this case a week. The actual period is between about nine weeks.
The table contains a number of transactions for each day, so I want to do a sum(transaction_value) for the last day in the week.
Recordset with the result:
Field 1(sum of value for the last day), Field 2 (year + week number)
----------------------------------------------------------------
1293243, 200249
324234243,200250
324234324,200251
243098324,200252
45354345,200301
etc....
Hmm, I dont know where to start. I know I have do a group by for the year and week but not how to get them sum of transactions for the last day in every week. Cursors are not an option in this case :-(

I think I found a solution:
The datepart function has probably not correct syntax it should work something like that.
SELECT (SUM(trans_value)/1000) AS value_SUM, Datepart(transDate,YEAR)+ Datepart(transDate,WEEK) AS PERIOD, transDate
FROM table1
WHERE transDate IN
( SELECT MAX(transDate) AS transDate
FROM table1
WHERE transDate between 20021206 and 20030131
GROUP BY Datepart(transDate,YEAR)+ Datepart(transDate,WEEK) AS PERIOD
)
GROUP BY Datepart(transDate,YEAR)+ Datepart(transDate,WEEK) AS PERIOD,transDate
ORDER BY transDate
