SQL CASE Statement

Is the following possible in SQL Server 2000?

CREATE FUNCTION getItemType  (@code varchar(18))
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN
Declare @Type tinyint
Select @Type = case len(@code)
WHEN 12,14,17 THEN 1
WHEN 13,15,18 THEN 2
WHEN 8,10 THEN 3
ELSE  0
END
RETURN (@Type)
END

Thanks.

Solution

  • try this:

    Select @Type = 
(select case 
WHEN len(@code) IN (12,14,17) THEN 1
WHEN len(@code) IN (13,15,18) THEN 2
WHEN len(@code) IN (8,10) THEN 3
ELSE  0
END)
