Try like:

if(IsNull(Dept),'brand',Dept) as Fieldname


Or, better to deal with not-null spaces or other invisible characters try like:


if(Len(Trim(Dept))=0,'brand',Dept) as Fieldname


Assuming Dept is a field and you want it's value to be called as 'brand'.

Yes Dept is a field and when ever there is null value in Dept it should be named as brand, if no null then as it is .

Hi Tresesco,

            if(Len(Trim(Dept))>0,'brand',Dept) as Fieldname


with all respect, i'am perplexed with above condition that would give a desired output.


That shud be '=0' or '>0' ?


Regards,

Nitin.

Hi,

try this:

if(len(Dept)<=0,'brand',Dept)

Thanks

Not applicable

Try this    If(len(Dept)=0,Brand,Dept) as NewField,

Let me know if this is working else I will provide other solution.

Thanks
