I have this query

Select dtmValidThru, datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) Months
From RES_Entity.dbo.tblEntityName
Where dtmValidThru < getdate()

simple enough I need to break the data in the column "Months" so that when the number is < 13 its a column, when > 12 but < 25 its a column, > but less than 37, and 37+

do you mean this?


Select dtmValidThru, 
datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) <13 then datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) else null end as col1,
datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) > 12 and datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) < 25 then datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) else null end as col2,
datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) >25 and datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) <37 then datediff(mm, getdate(), dtmValidThru) else null end as col3,
...
From RES_Entity.dbo.tblEntityName
Where dtmValidThru < getdate()
