Sorry logic correction but no results are returned
SELECT tSaleinvoice.*
FROM tSaleInvoice
WHERE tSaleInvoice.iID IN (CASE WHEN COALESCE('24315,24371', '') = ''
THEN ((SELECT LIST(tSI.iID) FROM tSaleInvoice tSI WHERE tSI.iBuyerID =
1583 AND CAST(tSI.tDt AS DATE) = CAST('2012-03-31' AS DATE)))
ELSE ((SELECT cSaleInvIDs FROM tSaleInvoiceCvrLtr WHERE iID = 993)) END)
