expression syntax is similar to an IF-THEN-ELSE statement. Oracle checks each
condition starting from the first condition (left to right). When a particular
condition is satisfied (WHEN part) the expression returns the tagged value
(THEN part). If none of the conditions are matched, the value mentioned in the
ELSE part is returned. The ELSE part of the expression is not mandatory-- CASE
expression will return null if nothing is satisfied.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/67E1F43E-A0B2-4D3C-A53C-401E2CB22146/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
