   Hello everybody,   
      
   i have the following table (agltransact), in which 2 fields are relevant:   
      
   ex_inv_ref account   
   15 1512   
   15 6040   
   16 1512   
   16 1512   
   16 6040   
   16 6040   
   17 1512   
   17 1512   
   17 1512   
   17 6040   
   17 6040   
   18 1512   
   18 1512   
   18 6040   
   18 6040   
   18 6040   
   18 6040   
      
   I would like to select the ext_inv_value for which there is not an   
   *equal* number of accounts 1512 and 6040; so this is :   
      
   ext_inv_ref   
   -----   
   17   
   18   
      
   I tried   
      
   select ext_inv_ref,   
   from agltransact   
   where client='MG' and account in('1512','6040') and ext_inv_type >= 15   
   and ext_inv_type <= 17   
   group by ext_inv_ref   
   having round(count(account)/2,0) != count(account)/2;   
      
   this select only those ext_inv_ref with an uneven number of accounts, so   
   ext_inv_ref   
   -----------   
   17   
      
   how would you write a query like that ?   
      
   thanks,   
   Andy
