I have a scenario where I am trying to retrieve multiple values from a field/column based on a condition in a select statement. I was trying to use a Case Statement, but the problem is that the Case Statement does not support multiple values in a field/column. Is there any work around to this or any other way to achieve this?

SELECT col1, col2, col3, Period         
FROM   tblMonthlyCost

WHERE  Period = CASE

    WHEN Datepart(MONTH, Getdate()) = 8 
        AND Datediff(DAY, '07/31/2012', Getdate()) <= 3 THEN Period IN
            ('0112','0212','0312','0412','0512','0612') 
    WHEN Datepart(MONTH, Getdate()) = 8 
        AND Datediff(DAY, '07/31/2012', Getdate()) > 3 THEN Period IN
        ('0112','0212','0312','0412','0512','0612','0712')      
END

    Why not just do this?

    SELECT  col1,
        col2,
        col3,
        Period
FROM    tblMonthlyCost
WHERE   Period IN ( '0112', '0212', '0312', '0412', '0512', '0612' )
        AND DATEPART(MONTH, GETDATE()) = 8
        AND DATEDIFF(DAY, '07/31/2012', GETDATE()) <= 3
        OR Period IN ( '0112', '0212', '0312', '0412', '0512', '0612', '0712' )
        AND DATEPART(MONTH, GETDATE()) = 8
        AND DATEDIFF(DAY, '07/31/2012', GETDATE()) > 3
