Question

IF( @ActiveStatus = 1 )
BEGIN 
    @PasswordStatus = 3 
END
ELSE 
    SET @PasswordStatus = (SELECT password_status 
                             FROM tbl_user
                            WHERE login_name = @LoginName_fromApp
                              AND password=@Pass
                           )

I am using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio..

Answer 1

yes

In IF clause you need to set variable so use select or set, do not write directly @PasswordStatus = 3 write set/select @PasswordStatus = 3

try

if( @ActiveStatus = 1 ) 
begin 
--chage of code 

 set @PasswordStatus = 3 --or select @PasswordStatus = 3
   END
else 
begin
Set @PasswordStatus = (select password_status from tbl_user where  login_name=@LoginName_fromApp and password=@Pass)

end

EDIT

Comment of -@ marc_s Use SET @Var = 3 if you’re just setting a “scalar” value – use SELECT @Var = ID FROM dbo.Table1 if you’re actually selecting from a table (or view)
