SQL grouping by month and year

Question

I'm not sure what should I write in the following SQL query to show 'date' column like this: "month-year" - "9-2011".

SELECT MONTH(date) + '.' + YEAR(date) AS Mjesec, SUM(marketingExpense) AS SumaMarketing, SUM(revenue) AS SumaZarada 
FROM [Order]
WHERE (idCustomer = 1) AND (date BETWEEN '2001-11-3' AND '2011-11-3')
GROUP BY MONTH(date), YEAR(date)

So, what I want to do is to change the data from the first column to show month and year instead of showing month only.

Answer 1

In postgresql I can write a similar query with a date-format function (to_char) and grouping just by date:

SELECT to_char (datum, 'MM-YYYY') AS mjesec 
FROM test 
GROUP BY datum 
ORDER BY datum;

Such thing is surely possible with SQL-Server too, isn't it?

Answer 2

I guess is MS SQL as it looks like MS SQL syntax.

So you should put in the group line the same thing as in select ex:

Select MONTH(date)+'-'+YEAR(date), ....
...
...
...
group by MONTH(date)+'-'+YEAR(date)
