This sample illustrates use of simple CASE function.
For each row in the dataset being retrieved, field "VenueNo" is compared to 2, and, if it is true, the string "Memorial Stadium" appears to the right of event name. If it is not true, then "VenueNo" is compared to 4, and if it equals to 4, string "Coliseum" appears. If "EventNo" matches neither 2 nor 4, ELSE part of the statement is executed and "unknown venue: VenueNo="is shown followed by value of the field "VenueNo".
select e1."Event_Name",
case e1."VenueNo"
when 2 then "Memorial Stadium"
when 4 then "Coliseum"
else "unknown venue: VenueNo=" + e1."VenueNo"
end as "Venue"
from "events" e1

The other people in the office didn't believe me when I said that all I had to do was document the problem and you would probably give me a fix overnight. Unbelievable! Keep up the great work. I hope you guys all make a fortune out of this product because it is truly fantastic and the support is the best I have ever encountered.
