How do I get this to work, it works without the Where Clause, otherwise

  • 0

How do I get this to work, it works without the Where Clause, otherwise with the Where clause, i get the obvious error, but that’s basically what needs to be done, anyone know how to approach this?

select ID, 
       Name,
       case T.N 
         when 1 then City1
         when 2 then City2
         when 3 then City3
       end as City,
       case T.N 
         when 1 then State1
         when 2 then State2
         when 3 then State3
       end as State
from YourTable
  cross join (values(1),(2),(3)) as T(N)

    Where City is NOT Null

    You can’t use the alias in the WHERE clause. Either repeat the expression (messy) or else put your SELECT in a subquery and then put the WHERE clause in the outer query:

    SELECT Id, Name, City, State
    FROM
    (
         SELECT
             ID, 
             Name,
             CASE T.N 
                 WHEN 1 THEN City1
                 WHEN 2 THEN City2
                 WHEN 3 THEN City3
             END AS City,
             CASE T.N 
                 WHEN 1 THEN State1
                 WHEN 2 THEN State2
                 WHEN 3 THEN State3
             END AS State
         FROM YourTable
         CROSS JOIN (VALUES(1),(2),(3)) AS T(N)
    ) T1
    WHERE City IS NOT NULL
