Choose multiple cases condition - sql

I want to get multipule choises after then in case statment as
#value
select * from [dbo].[Currency_Tbl]
WHERE [Currency_Active_YN]=
CASE WHEN #value = 1 THEN
( 1 or 0)
ELSE
#Value = 0 then 0
END
it didn't accept the first line in col1 but accept the col2
how can I select multiple numbers after THEN?

You don't use case in where clauses. Use boolean logic
select * from [dbo].[Currency_Tbl]
WHERE (#value = 1 and [Currency_Active_YN] in (0,1))
OR (#value = 0 and [Currency_Active_YN] = 0)

You dont need a case to do what you're trying to do. Assuming Currency_Active_YN is a not null bit field the following logic should suffice.
select * from [dbo].[Currency_Tbl]
WHERE (#value=1 OR [Currency_Active_YN]=#Value)

input parameter used in case statement in where clause

I have the following simplified stored procedure where based on on the input parameter, I need to then do a case in the where clause. It will not execute as it says: Incorrect syntax near '='
PROCEDURE [dbo].[DataInfo]
#Allowactive BIT = 1
AS
BEGIN
Select * from tbl1 1
where (CASE #Allowactive
WHEN 0 then (t.Isactive = 1) END
AND isSubmitted = 1
END
your where clause will be like below
where
CASE #Allowactive
WHEN 0 then t.Isactive END =1
AND isSubmitted = 1
You shouldn't use parameters in a query like this, as it messes up the query plan. When the right plan to use changes depending on the parameter, you need separate queries, or to force SQL to always recompile.
So do this instead:
create or alter procedure [dbo].[DataInfo] #Allowactive bit = 1
as
begin
if #Allowactive = 0
begin
Select * from tbl1 1
where Isactive = 1
AND isSubmitted = 1
end
else
begin
select * from tbl1 1
where isSubmitted = 1
end
end
Instead run separate queries.
Try to run the following and see the results:
SELECT *
FROM Tbl1 AS T
WHERE CASE #Allowactive
WHEN 0 THEN 1 ELSE #Allowactive END = T.Isactive
AND
isSubmitted = 1;
If you have 2012+ version then you could also do:
SELECT *
FROM Tbl1 AS T
WHERE IIF(#Allowactive = 0, 1, #Allowactive) = T.Isactive;
It seems Zaynul Abadin Tuhin directly answers your question.
But, I believe a case statement complicates what you want to achieve.
I think a query like this satisfies your desired outcome:
PROCEDURE [dbo].[DataInfo]
#Allowactive BIT = 1
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM tbl1 t
WHERE (#Allowactive = 1 OR (#Allowactive = 0 AND t.Isactive = 1))
AND t.isSubmitted = 1
END

Range of values as ELSE clause in a CASE statement

I have a stored proc which is supposed to filter results based on an integer which can be NULL and I need to be able to choose results that either match the integer or retrieve all results but I can't figure out the syntax for the "All" results part. Query is basically this:
Select * from dbo.TABLE
WHERE [IDField] =
CASE
WHEN ISNULL(#ID, 0) > 0 THEN #ID
ELSE ?????
END
I want to use an IN range to include all the values because setting it to 0 or Null will return no results, but this doesn't work:
Select * from dbo.TABLE
WHERE [IDField] =
CASE
WHEN ISNULL(#ID, 0) > 0 THEN #ID
ELSE 1 OR 2 OR 3
END
or this:
Select * from dbo.TABLE
WHERE [IDField] IN (
CASE
WHEN ISNULL(#mID, 0) > 0 THEN #mID
ELSE 1,2,3
END
)
Phrase this without the case:
SELECT *
FROM dbo.TABLE
WHERE #id is null OR IDField = #id;
Then you can expand this to:
SELECT *
FROM dbo.TABLE
WHERE (COALESCE(#ID, 0) > 0 AND IDField = #id) OR
IDField IN (1, 2, 3)

SQL Filter SELECT statement

I need to filter my select statement to only grab a value is a bit value is true. For example
DECLARE
#Value AS NVARCHAR(20) = 'Some Value'
#BIT AS BIT = 1,
#Stuff AS NVARCHAR(20) = 'Stuff'
SELECT
#Stuff,
IF #BIT = 1 BEGIN #Value END ELSE BEGIN '' END
Something like this basically. I only want to select the value if its true. I have multiple checkboxes and the data should only pull that data back if the user selects one of those check boxes so I'm using bit's to track if its checked or not. Thanks in advance
Use CASE not IF:
SELECT
#Stuff,
CASE WHEN #BIT = 1 THEN #Value ELSE '' END
or
CASE #BIT WHEN 1 THEN #Value ELSE '' END
It's a little unclear what you are trying to do, so I will give you several approaches:
If you are limiting your select statement, you can do:
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE myBitField = 1
or, if your bit field is a variable that's being passed in, you can do:
SELECT ...
FROM ...
WHERE myBitField = #BIT
If you don't want to limit your select results, you can use a case statement:
SELECT CASE WHEN #BIT = 1 THEN #Value ELSE '' END as BitResult
FROM ...

How do I use an if statement inside the where clause in this sql statement?

select *
from mytable
where (if #key=0
pkey>=0
else
pkey = #key)
#key is the value passed in to the stored procedure and pkey is a column in mytable.
How about this:
select *
from mytable
where ((#key=0 AND pkey>=0) OR (#key<>0 AND pkey = #key))
You use CASE (bit like the way you are trying with if) as below. (DEMO)
select *
from mytable
where pkey = case when #key <> 0 then #key
else Abs(pkey) end
This will work for you . by using case statement you can apply dynamic filter ..
select *
from mytable
where 1 = case
when #key=0 then case when pkey>=0 then 1 else 0 end
else case when pkey = #key then 1 else 0 end
end

Use comparison signs inside a sql case statement

I'm looking for a way to build case statements in a sql select query using less than and greater than signs. For example, I want to select a ranking based on a variable:
DECLARE #a INT
SET #a = 0
SELECT CASE
WHEN #a < 3 THEN 0
WHEN #a = 3 THEN 1
WHEN #a > 3 THEN 2
END
I'd like to write it as:
DECLARE #a INT
SET #a = 0
SELECT CASE #a
WHEN < 3 THEN 0
WHEN 3 THEN 1
WHEN > 3 THEN 2
END
...but SQL doesn't let me use the < and > signs in this way. Is there a way that I can do this is SQL 2005, or do I need to use the code like in the first one.
The reason for only wanting the code there once is because it would make the code a lot more readable/maintainable and also because I'm not sure if SQL server will have to run the calculation for each CASE statement.
I'm looking for a VB.NET case statement equivelent:
Select Case i
Case Is < 100
p = 1
Case Is >= 100
p = 2
End Select
Maybe it's not possible in SQL and that's ok, I just want to confirm that.
You can use the SIGN function as
DECLARE #a INT
SET #a = 0
SELECT CASE SIGN(#a - 3)
WHEN -1 THEN 0
WHEN 0 THEN 1
WHEN 1 THEN 2
END
If #a is smaller than 3, then #a - 3 results in a negative int, in which SIGN returns -1.
If #a is 3 or greater, then SIGN returns 0 or 1, respectively.
If the output you want is 0, 1 and 2, then you can simplify even more:
DECLARE #a INT
SET #a = 0
SELECT SIGN(#a - 3) + 1
Using SIGN as suggested by #Jose Rui Santos seems a nice workaround. An alternative could be to assign the expression an alias, use a subselect and test the expression (using its alias) in the outer select:
SELECT
…,
CASE
WHEN expr < 3 THEN …
WHEN expr > 3 THEN …
END AS …
FROM (
SELECT
…,
a complex expression AS expr
FROM …
…
)
SELECT
CASE
WHEN ColumnName >=1 and ColumnName <=1 THEN 'Fail'
WHEN ColumnName >=6 THEN 'Pass'
ELSE 'Test'
END
FROM TableName
