Hi all,

I'm trying to come up with an SQL statement that works under sqlite that can 
return a list of rows depending if a list of ids exist.
For individual checking i'm using:

select 1 from table where id == 1;

which returns a 1 if there is a row or no rows if it doesn't exist. However i 
have a large list to check and was trying to think of a way to optimise this. I 
can use:

select 1 from table where id == 1 OR id == 2;

which will return:

1
1

if they both exist, but if one doesn't exist i can't tell which one it is. Is 
there some way to get the statement to return a row with a 0 if the id doe not 
exist? 

1
0

Or do i have to do the check for each one?

Thanks for your help

Andrew
