Hi Folks,

I'm a SQL n00b and need a hand with a simple query..

Here is my query in my SqlDataSource:

SELECT "DATESTAMP", "QUICKCALL_KEY", "DESCRIPTION", "TYPE" FROM "SERVICEREQ" WHERE ("QUICKCALL_KEY" = :QUICKCALL_KEY) AND "DATESTAMP" > (SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE) FROM "DUAL")

What i need to do is this:

if (TYPE=='3'){
channel="Phone";
}

elseif (TYPE=='0'){
channel="E-Mail";
}

elseif (TYPE=='8'){
Channel="SMS";
}

Any help would be superb Amigos!!

not sure if you're using sql server (seeing syntax). if yes, try this


SELECT DATESTAMP, QUICKCALL_KEY, DESCRIPTION, TYPE,
CASE WHEN TYPE='3' THEN 'Phone'
WHEN TYPE='0' THEN 'E-Mail'
WHEN TYPE=='8' THEN 'SMS' 
END AS Channel
 FROM SERVICEREQ WHERE (QUICKCALL_KEY = QUICKCALL_KEY) AND DATESTAMP > 
(SELECT TRUNC(SYSDATE) FROM DUAL)
