The asymptotic behavior of nonoscillatory solutions of the second order functional differential equation

is studied. First, in the case when a(t)is oscillatory, sufficient conditions are given in order that all bounded non-oscillatory solutions of (*) approach zero as t → ∞. Secondly, in the case when a(t) is nonnegative, conditions are provided under which all nonoscillatory solutions of (*) tend to zero as t → ∞.
