I was thinking about "select" which I've seldom seen, I never heard about "iif" previously but it has the benefit of being quite short (convenient for long expressions) and already in use elsewhere. And it also has the benefit that someone searching for "if" would easily stumble on it. I'm fine with the patch BTW, so if everyone agrees on "iif", let's suggest we go with it ? thanks, Willy
