Subject: [SQL] How can I simply substatue a value in a query?
I want to do a simple substatution of a value in a query. For example I have a boolean field that wil return t or f for True and False. I would like it to return Yes or No. I don't want to have a 2x2 table to look up the output. I don't want to use stored procedue.
I think there is a better way, somthing very simple but I cannot remember what it is.
See CASE:
