Maybe anybody has an idea how to frame the WHERE command to select only 
certain columns from a table?

I am having a table SALES with kind of the following columns:
 1. CustomerID
 2. Jan
 3. Feb
 4. Mar
   ....
13. Dec
14. Total_2018
15. Total_2019
16. Total_2020
17. Total_2021

A new column (Total_...) will be added for each new year, so I can keep 
sales history for many years.

Then I have a report that prints the total of the current year (e.g. 
Total_2021) with three more "Total-Columns" allowing comparisons on 
different years.

As columns will be added each year the report should dynamically adapt and 
show totals for new years for selection as they appear.

Now, how do I build the WHERE clause in the CHOOSE command that allows the 
user do select two different columns (of former years), but of course only 
from those that contain annual totals "Total_*"?

CHOOSE vChoose FROM #COLUMNS IN SALES WHERE ???? CHKBOX 3 +
  TITLE "Select 3 previous years for comparison" +
  CAPTION "Annual Sales Volumes" +
  LINES 5 FORMATTED 

Thanks very much for your ideas
