How about this?? Even if it does work, there could be a case where two
reversals have the same dollar amount. This could cause confusion.


Select *
FROM transactions AS transactionsP, transactions AS transactionsN
WHERE transactionsP.acctNo = transactionsN.acctNo
AND transactionsP.trxType in ('d','r') 
AND transactionsP.trxType = transactionsN.trxType
AND transactionsP.trxAmt > 0
AND transactionsP.trxAmt = -transactionsN.trxAmt
