you get errors because you cannot divide a DATE by a NUMBER --
trunc(sysdate) returns a DATE, and a DATE minus a NUMBER returns a DATE
again.
so you can only do things like:
trunc(sysdate) - (22/86400)

Kind regards,
Lex.

Hello expert,

Thank you very much for all of your reply.

But in my case, the 1 is variable. I tried the following but it complains
that

SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE)-22/86400 from dual;

TRUNC(SYS
-- ------
02-AUG-04 <--- Wrong date.

SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE-22)/86400 from dual;
SELECT (TRUNC(SYSDATE)-22)/86400 from dual;

These two SQL statements gave the error:

ORA-00932 (See ORA-00932.ora-code.com): inconsistent datatypes

If I try this one, it works.

SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE - 22), TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(SYSDATE-22+1),
'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS '),
'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS ') from dual;

Is there any way to improve this lengthly statement?

Thanks,
Wes
