  Hi

  I need to compare two dates and use one depending on the case

  needs to be something like

  if table1.expdate is not null then use table1.expdate

  else if table2.expdate is null use '2099-12-31' else use table2.expdate end as enddate

  Thanks

  Joe

  SELECT COALESCE(table1.expdate, table2.expdate, '2099-12-31') as enddate
