  • Thanks for sharing Matthias. Different strokes for different folks so don't take the below as a criticism, just some of us have different coding styles so if you are like me and prefer for nested Conditions (i.e. the Case nesting) to be laid out in visual manner represenatative of thier nesting level and or use of Convert() iunstead of CAST() then the below is the re-formatted version of Mathias's code.

    Again this is just a difference in style.
