This sample illustrates use of simple CASE function.
For each row in the dataset being retrieved, field "VenueNo" is compared to 2, and, if it is true, the string "Memorial Stadium" appears to the right of event name. If it is not true, then "VenueNo" is compared to 4, and if it equals to 4, string "Coliseum" appears. If "EventNo" matches neither 2 nor 4, ELSE part of the statement is executed and "unknown venue: VenueNo="is shown followed by value of the field "VenueNo".
select e1."Event_Name",
case e1."VenueNo"
when 2 then "Memorial Stadium"
when 4 then "Coliseum"
else "unknown venue: VenueNo=" + e1."VenueNo"
end as "Venue"
from "events" e1

We made three requests of the technical support personnel and despite the fact that these were all implementation questions (not bugs in their software) we received support within 24 hours. It is rare to get such good customer support these days and I really appreciate everything ComponentAce has done for us.
