How do I use an IF command in a SELECT statement using SQLScope?

by  handlewithcare  Posted    (Edited  )
It would appear that SQLScope has no IF or CASE commands. After much searching I found that the following statement can be used to solve this problem;

SELECT (if_statement ?? then_condition :: else_condition) AS dataresult FROM datafile

Example:
SELECT (field > 1000 ?? 'large' :: 'small') AS dataresult FROM datafile

I hope this will be of use to someone...
