IF...ELSE (Transact-SQL)

  • Makale

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW) SQL analytics endpoint in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Imposes conditions on the execution of a Transact-SQL statement. The Transact-SQL statement that follows an IF keyword and its condition is executed if the condition is satisfied: the Boolean expression returns TRUE. The optional ELSE keyword introduces another Transact-SQL statement that is executed when the IF condition isn't satisfied: the Boolean expression returns FALSE.

Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax

IF boolean_expression
    { sql_statement | statement_block }
[ ELSE
    { sql_statement | statement_block } ]

Arguments

boolean_expression

An expression that returns TRUE or FALSE. If the Boolean expression contains a SELECT statement, the SELECT statement must be enclosed in parentheses.

{ sql_statement | statement_block }

Any Transact-SQL statement or statement grouping as defined by using a statement block. Unless a statement block is used, the IF or ELSE condition can affect the performance of only one Transact-SQL statement.

To define a statement block, use the control-of-flow keywords BEGIN and END.

Remarks

An IF...ELSE construct can be used in batches, in stored procedures, and in ad hoc queries. When this construct is used in a stored procedure, it's usually to test for the existence of some parameter.

IF tests can be nested after another IF or following an ELSE. The limit to the number of nested levels depends on available memory.

Examples

IF DATENAME(weekday, GETDATE()) IN (N'Saturday', N'Sunday')
    SELECT 'Weekend';
ELSE
    SELECT 'Weekday';

For more examples, see ELSE (IF...ELSE).

Examples: Azure Synapse Analytics and Analytics Platform System (PDW)

The following example uses IF...ELSE to determine which of two responses to show the user, based on the weight of an item in the DimProduct table.

-- Uses AdventureWorksDW

DECLARE @maxWeight FLOAT, @productKey INT;

SET @maxWeight = 100.00;
SET @productKey = 424;

IF @maxWeight <= (
        SELECT Weight
        FROM DimProduct
        WHERE ProductKey = @productKey
    )
    SELECT @productKey AS ProductKey,
        EnglishDescription,
        Weight,
        'This product is too heavy to ship and is only available for pickup.' AS ShippingStatus
    FROM DimProduct
    WHERE ProductKey = @productKey;
ELSE
    SELECT @productKey AS ProductKey,
        EnglishDescription,
        Weight,
        'This product is available for shipping or pickup.' AS ShippingStatus
    FROM DimProduct
    WHERE ProductKey = @productKey;
