Scenario:

 

SET VAR vzero DOUBLE = 0

 

SET VAR vnull DOUBLE = NULL

 

Column LSAVG data type DOUBLE

 

 

Simple logic test.  If the value of LSAVG is 0 then display 'YES' otherwise
display 'NO'

 

select lsavg,(IFEQ(LSAVG,.VZERO,'YES','NO')) from color_line_study wher
lsavg = 0

 

 lsavg           (IFEQ(LSAVG,.VZ 

 --------------- --------------- 

              0. YES

              0. YES

              0. YES

              0. YES

              0. YES

 

Then why does this not work?:

 

select lsavg,(IFEQ(LSAVG, .VZERO, .VNULL, LSAVG)) from color_line_study
where lsavg = 0

 

 lsavg           (IFEQ(LSAVG,.VZ 

 --------------- --------------- 

              0.              0.

              0.              0.

              0.              0.

              0.              0.

              0.              0.

 

The intent is to display NULL when the value of the lsavg field equals 0.

 

The reverse works OK:

 

select lsavg,(IFEQ(LSAVG,.VZERO,.VNULL,LSAVG)) from color_line_study wher
lsavg > 0 and limit = 4

 

 lsavg           (IFEQ(LSAVG,.VZ 

 --------------- --------------- 

         41.0823         41.0823

         41.0799         41.0799

         41.0823         41.0823

          41.079          41.079

 

Thoughts anyone?
