Try using a CASE statement to get your results.
Insert into yourtable (a, b, c)
SELECT A =
CASE
WHEN price IS NULL THEN A
WHEN price < 10 THEN B
WHEN price >= 10 A
ELSE C
END,
CAST(title AS varchar(20)) AS 'Shortened Title'
FROM titles
ORDER BY price
Syntax isn't pretty but you get the point

Subject: SQL Question
Is there anyway of doing an if/else statement inside an insert clause,
something like?
Insert dbo.myTable (x,y,z)
Select dbo.myOtherTable.fieldA, dbo.myOtherTable.fieldB,
if (dbo.myOtherTable.fieldC != 0) dbo.myOtherTable.fieldC else
dbo.myOtherTable.fieldD
>From dbo.myOtherTable
Where dbo.myOtherTable.fieldN = 1
