Hello,
How about this?
SELECT Code, name,
DECODE(cons_code, '1', 'A', '2', 'B', '3','C', '4', 'D','5', 'E') Activity, SUM(amnt) amount
From Mytable
WHERE ....
GROUP BY Code, name, DECODE(cons_code, '1', 'A', '2', 'B', '3','C', '4', 'D', '5', 'E')
ORDER BY code, DECODE(cons_code, '1', 'A', '2', 'B', '3','C', '4', 'D', '5', 'E')
