Question

Sorry for the vague title, but I’m not exactly sure how I can explain what I want to do in a sentence.

Preamble: The SQL syntax for selecting columns that are Boolean is as follows:

SELECT MyBooleanColumn FROM MyTableThatHasABooleanColumn

This produces the following result:

MyBooleanColumn
===============
       1
       1
       1
       0
       1
      ...

Question: Is there a way to get the following result instead?

MyBooleanColumn
===============
     True
     True
     True
     False
     True
      ...

Answer 1

SELECT case 
        when MyBooleanColumn = 1 then 'True' 
        else 'False' 
    end as MyBooleanColumn  
FROM MyTableThatHasABooleanColumn
