Hi,

How can I code this:

Set the values of GoalMet comparing the LocalPerf value and SppTarget.Target value with the CompareMethod. If CompareMethod = 1, then LocalPerf >= Target means GoalMet = 1; othwerwise, LocalPerf <= Target means GoalMet = 1.

Thanks in advance.

you can use a CASE Statement. Is that a type or would it be 1 for both cases? Change your CASE accordingly. you can use the foll as a sample:

SELECT
 GoalMet = CASE WHEN CompareMethod = 1 AND LocalPerf >= Target Then 1 WHEN LocalPerf <= Target THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
FROM 
...

Hi Dinakar,

it should be as follows:

If comparemethod = 1, LocalPref >= Target means GoalMet = 1.
If comparemethod = 0, then LocalPref <= Target means GoalMet = 1.
So, please tell me how can I code these stmt. in SQL?

Thanks for the help.

I have shown an example. You can take it from there. Read up books on line for more info and more samples on CASE statement.
If you are still not able to do it, post your efforts and someone can definetely help you out.
