Aggregation of same data with different conditions - Help please!

    Hi all.

    I've got a set of data which has a userid, a numeric value, and a date associated.

    I need to aggregate the numeric values by user and by yearly quarter (current and next).  That is, I'm trying to produce a result set which is grouped by the userid, and has 6 other columns; the 3 months of the current quarter and the 3 months of next.

    I'm struggling to work out how to get this view.  For the current date it'd be something like:

    Column 1: User ID
    Column 2: Sum of Values, Where associated Date is in January (assuming January can be identified by various date functions - I've already got this done).
    Column 3: Sum of Values, Where associated Date is in February.
    Column 4: Sum of Values for March.
    Column 5: Sum of Values for April.
    Column 6: Sum of Values for May.
    Column 7: Sum of Values for June.

    Can anyone suggest how I could achieve this?  Assume I've got variables to identify months, quarters, etc.  So pseudo-code responses are fine :)  Thanks.

    UPDATE:  I've found a solution now using switches.  Thanks to anyone who pondered this thread!
