    Something like this?

    select t1.STD_NO

    ,t1.GRADE

    ,t1.CLASS

    ,DISTRICT = iif(t1.Grade = 0, t1.District, t1.Area)

    ,AREA = iif(t1.Grade = 0, '0', t1.Area)

    ,City = iif(t1.Grade = 0, t1.City, '0')

    ,Zip = iif(t1.Grade = 0, '0', t1.Zip)

    from t1;

  • that doesn't seem to be working

    name of the table is "test"

  • Well, you could take the code that was provided and change the name from "t1" to "test" and try to figure it out.

  • Just to clarify little bit more:

    1) i want to display all the records

    2) but I want create new column says School which has data from either district or area. So if Grade =0 than school column will have district's data, if the Grade is NOT 0 than school column will have Area data

    3) Similary I want to crate new column Zone which has data from either city or zip. So if Grade=0 than zone will have City's data and if the Grade is NOT 0 than Zone will have Zip's data.

    Remember the Condition is applied one time for e.g. Grade is 0 or not so need to check everything in one statement.

  • What have you tried? Can you post this?

    Also, we cannot see your data or your schema. Can you follow the link in my signature so we can properly help you?

    Clarify? You mean, change.

    Here is your original desired output, containing no columns called School or Zone. Why did you post this when what you wanted was something different?
