I'm not sure I understand what you are suggesting. How do I calculate the mycalcfield? I think I'm missing what you're saying?

SELECT
>> credits = (SELECT SUM(ac.yamount)
>> FROM account_credits ac
>> WHERE ac.cinmates_id = @cinmates_id) ,
>> debits = (SELECT sum(ad.yamount)
>> from account_debits ad
>> WHERE ad.cinmates_id=@cinmates_id) ,
>> creditedamt = (SELECT sum(ad.ycreditedamt)
>> from account_debits ad
>> WHERE ad.cinmates_id=@cinmates_id )
>>

>>In the above stored proc I would like to add a 4th colum which is balance=credits-debits-creditedamt

>>Would also appreciate any insights as to other ways to design this select.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
