Well I am just starting to pick up SQL on my own so I am doing lots of reading. It's tuff. Especially when no one is there to show you how it's done. Anyhow, here is what I am trying to accomplish if anyone can help. I keep failing. I figure if I see the right way then it will be clear.

I am trying to write a query for all employees in MM/DD/YY format.


Also, wanting to write a query to show the most recent five orders that were purchases from a cutsomer who has spent more than $25,000.

If anyone can help that would be saawwwwweeeeettt. Thanks.

hints:
(1) use convert for date format, readup books online for convert functions
(2) you would also need ORDER BY and a WHERE clause to filter out > 25000.

postback what you have tried and someone can help you out..
