Question

I would love to have a t-sql statement like the following…

SELECT [field]
FROM [table]
WHERE CASE @flag
        WHEN 1 THEN col1 = @value
        ELSE col2 = @different_value
      END

The point being I want to put a flag in my function to use different where clauses in the same query. I just can’t get it to work. Is this possible?

Answer 1

Will this work for you?

Where (@flag = 1 and col1 = @value) or (@flag != 1 and col2 = @different_value).
