Convert bit type to Yes or No by query Sql Server 2005
I Want convert bit
type to Yes or No
For Example:
SELECT FirstName, LastName, IsMale from members
Results开发者_StackOverflow中文版:
Ramy Said 1
Expected Result:
Ramy Said Yes
You can do this using a searched case expression:
SELECT
FirstName,
LastName,
CASE WHEN IsMale = 1 THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END AS IsMale
FROM
Members
Here you go:
SELECT FirstName, LastName, CASE WHEN IsMale = 1 THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END AS Male
FROM members
Basically, you use a CASE
statement to allow you to convert the value. If you had three choices, you could still use the case statement and just add another option (obviously you can't have three options with a bit but if the field was an int, etc.) The ELSE
statement is the default statement that runs if you don't get a match. In our case, we just use it for No since we can only have yes or no but in the case of a larger CASE
statement, you would want to use this as your fall-back field. For example, you could say "Item Not Found" if you were converting items.
Use a CASE
;
SELECT
FirstName,
LastName,
CASE IsMale WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END AS IsMale
FROM tbl
Use an IIF()
which is available SQL Server 2012
onwards.
There is one another way of achieving this. (shorthand way(maybe not)). That's using IIF()
. See below.
SELECT
[FirstName],
[LastName],
IIF([IsMale]=1,'Yes','No') AS [IsMale As String]
FROM
[Members]
SQL Server 2012 introduces two new keywords FORMAT
and IIF
that can provide a more compact means of converting an integer or bit to string:
DECLARE @MyInt int = 123
PRINT 'Hello '+FORMAT(@MyInt,'')
-- (note: the "+0" converts a bit type to int then outputs '0' or '1')
DECLARE @MyBit bit = 0
PRINT 'Hello '+FORMAT(@MyBit+0,'')
But to convert a bit
type to Yes
or No
I would now use:
PRINT 'Hello '+IIF(@MyBit=1,'Yes','No')
