    Hey Everyone,

    I have a set of IF THEN logic that create additional fields. Does anyone have a great grasp of how to convert the attached examples from IF THEN to CASE THEN statements. Any help would be appreciated.

    Example 1:

    IIF(fmwa.GroupNbr<>'','NO', IIF(dind.DefaultIndicator='Y', 'YES', 'NO')) AS Default_ID

    Example 2:

    IIF(tagagt.AgencyName='',(RTrim(tagagt.LastName)) + N', ' + LTrim(RTrim(tagagt.FirstName)), LTrim(RTrim(tagagt.AgencyName))) AS WA_Name

    Like this?

    Example 1:

    case when fmwa.GroupNbr <> '' then 'NO' when dind.DefaultIndicator = 'Y' then ' YES' else 'NO' end as Default_ID

    Example 2:

    case when tagagt.AgencyName = ''

    then RTrim(tagagt.LastName)) + N', ' + LTrim(RTrim(tagagt.FirstName)

    else LTrim(RTrim(tagagt.AgencyName))

    end as WA_Name
