  Hi

  I have a parameter called program

  it goes through and does its select, then in the where

  it has a case statement depending on the parameter

  Unit.FullName =

  Case

  when @Program='A' then '123'

  When @Program= 'B' then '456'

  But when program = 'C' i want it to check CostCenter.Fullname instead of Unit.Fullname...?

  do I have to put a case statement around the outside and do two selects?

  Thanks
