Hi All - Smee again!
Two questions but they're unrelated so I'll make 2 posts to keep it clean!
Number one (and I think is the easier one).
I have a SELECT statement, part of which is a "Flags" column which is a CASE
function, but I need to be able to concatenate the results together.
Example: in the below, I need to be show both "@" and "K" if both of the
CASE blocks are true. Possible?
<snip>
CASE WHEN stkeoq(stock.code) = -1 THEN '@'
WHEN stock.kit_pack = 'Y' THEN 'K'
END AS "flags",
<snip>
Note: "stkeoq" is a function
The actual CASE is going to end up with 7 individual tests and therefore 7
difference flags that I'll need to test and concatenate all the true ones.
Thanks,
-p
