Hi!

I have this kind of problem:
In table1 I have a column Address. If this column has a value it must be taken. but if it is empty, then I must take value from table2, where column name is Address2.
Regards: Karri

Karri,

You'll have to substitute the table1 and table2 to your tables and the join condition and it should work.

SELECT DECODE (A.ADDRESS, NULL, B.ADDRESS2, A.ADDRESS)
FROM TABLE1 A, TABLE2 B
WHERE A.PRIMARY_KEY = B.PRIMARY_KEY

hth

Prem :)
