    How though

     

    How could I create another date table using the flags in Dim date I have already set up?

     

    date                  flag

    01/01/2010      1

    02/01/2010      1

    03/01/2010      1

    04/01/2010      1

     

    Take date Between Min date and Maz date Where flag = 1
