IFF Else syntax with Access DB

Hi,

Is it possible to have something like this (MS Access DB):

SELECT IIF (oacabrt = 'A', 140)
ELSEIFF (oacabrt = 'B', 100)
ELSEIFF (oacabrt = 'C', 80)
ELSEIFF (oacabrt = 'D', 60)

I know I can have IFF but don't know how to intergrate the else

Thanks,

Sanjay

yes, all you need to do is nest them

SELECT
IIF(oacabrt = 'A', 140,
IIF(oacabrt = 'B', 100,
IIF(oacabrt = 'C', 80,
IIF(oacabrt = 'D', 60)))) as foo from yourtable...

edit: typo IFF changed to correct IIF

Thanks, that works perfectly

BTW could you ammend your code from IFF to IIF just in case someone else needs it

Thanks,

Sanjay
