Here's one way, using pure SQL. I've had to guess at your table structures and some other things.

select

c.FullName

,

sp.StartDate Date

,

cast('Opening Balance' as varchar(1000)) Description

,

cob.Amount

,

cob.Amount Balance

from

CustOpeningBal cob

join

SalesPeriod sp

on

cob.SalesPeriodID = sp.SalesPeriodID

join

Customer c

on

cob.CustID = c.CustID

where

sp.StartDate = '2006-01-31 00:00:00'

union

all

select

c.FullName, t.Date, t.Description, t.Amount, sum(t2.amount)+cob.amount

from

Transactions t

join

Customer c

on t.CustID = c.CustID

join

CustOpeningBal cob on cob.CustID = t.CustID

join

SalesPeriod sp on cob.SalesPeriodID = sp.SalesPeriodID

--use date matching if the sales period is not recorded for each transaction:

and t.Date >= sp.StartDate

and t.Date < sp.EndDate --assuming you have a denormalised end date

left

join Transactions t2 on t2.CustID = t.CustID

and t2.Date >= sp.StartDate

and t2.Date <= t.Date

and t2.TransactionSerialNo <= t1.TransactionSerialNo

--don't know what fields you have available to order the transactions by time...

where

sp.StartDate = '2006-01-31 00:00:00'

--? and t.StartDate < select floor(cast(getdate() as float))

-- --(only show trans up to end of yesterday)

group

by c.FullName, t.Date, t.Description, t.Amount

order

by FullName, case Description when 'Opening Balance' then 0 else 1 end, Date

If you could supply more info about your tables, it would help.

This will work but I don't know how it will perform with a large number of rows in the transaction table.

DECLARE @begbal TABLE (customer varchar(20), balance int, baldate datetime)

insert @begbal VALUES ('mr. x', 100, '31 Jan 2006')

insert @begbal Values('mr. yy', 250, '31 Jan 2006')

DECLARE @transaction TABLE (customer varchar(20), trandate datetime, description varchar(20), amount int)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. x', '05 feb 2006', 'sales', 200)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. x', '08 feb 2006', 'sales again', 500)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. x', '12 feb 2006', 'next sales', 100)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. x', '15 feb 2006', 'another sales', 600)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. yy', '05 mar 2006', '2 piece', 200)

INSERT @transaction values('mr. yy', '08 apr 2006', 'just one piece', 500)

SELECT b.baldate, 'Beginning balance', null, balance

FROM @begbal b

WHERE b.customer = 'mr. x'

UNION ALL

SELECT t.trandate, t.description, t.amount, b.balance + x.runningbal

FROM @begbal b

inner join @transaction t

on b.customer = t.customer

INNER JOIN (select a.customer, a.trandate, sum(b.amount) runningbal

FROM @transaction a

INNER JOIN @transaction b

on b.trandate <= a.trandate

GROUP BY a.customer, a.trandate) x

ON t.customer = x.customer AND t.trandate = x.trandate

WHERE b.customer = 'mr. x'

ORDER BY 1
