Hi All,

        Any clues on why does a CASE block does not work in an INSERT-APPEND-SELECT statement called in a sql block in an UNIX script? If I replace the case block with a decode function then it works!!!! Whereas in a sql command prompt, both DECODE and CASE yields results.

TIA for all ur hints.

Thanks,
Rajesh
