regarding optimising the query

Hi

can we use the if condition or any other condition in select query
ie i use to select query for two conditons

If flag = not set

Select * from Table
where role_plyr_id = 'xxxxx'
and valid_from_date = '01/01/2004'

If flag = set

Select * from Table
where role_plyr_id = 'xxxxx'
and valid_from_date = '01/01/2004'
and Agreement_id = 'oooo'

plz find that only one line is in where condition difers between 2 queries

can we the query like below

Select * from Table
where role_plyr_id = 'xxxxx'
and valid_from_date = '01/01/2004'
if Flag = set
Agreement_id = 'oooo'
else
continue
End-if

Thanks
Siva

Hi ,

It's not possible to use the if condition in the query, but after fetching the result from the first query you can check the value of column Agreement_id and proceed further..
