Hi Matthew,
something like this may help you:
....where cast((current_timestamp - start_time)hours as integer) <= 4
Cheers,
Paul.

Subject: timestamps in select
Hallo,
I am using the following select statement;
select entity,((sum(bytes)/1024)/1024) as MB from summary where entity
in (select node_name from nodes where domain_name like 'DM%') and
start_time>timestamp(current_date - 1 days) and activity='BACKUP'
group by entity
I would like to be able to specify a period of hours preceding the
current date/time, rather than a whole number of days [
timestamp(current_date - 1 days) ]. My SQL's not so hot, if anyone
could show me how to do it I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
Matt.
