perhaps using a union statement to make it look a little nicer :bigsmile:

select ename, max(sal) from temp3_emp
union
select ename, min(sal) from temp3_emp

hi sir.. how about getting the highest and lowest paid employee each month?.

i have the query like this:

select hiredate, max(sal) highest_salary, min(sal)lowest_salary from temp3_emp
	group by hiredate;


but the output is:
OUTPUT:
HIREDATE HIGHEST_SALARY LOWEST_SALARY
-------------------- -------------- -------------
JAN-01-2012 14:23:01 2850 800
APR-01-2012 14:23:01 1100 1100
NOV-01-2012 14:23:01 1250 1250
OCT-01-2012 14:23:01 2975 2975
MAR-01-2012 14:23:01 950 950
SEP-01-2012 14:23:01 1250 1250
AUG-01-2012 14:23:01 2450 2450
JUL-01-2012 14:23:01 3000 3000
JUN-01-2012 14:23:01 5000 5000
MAY-01-2012 14:23:01 1500 1500
FEB-01-2012 14:23:01 3000 1300

but based on the instruction, i have to display also the ename, hiredate of each month and the highest and lowest salary..

what are the missing parameters?.

thanks.. :)
