The following examples show queries on the following table:

CREATE TABLE Membership
   (FullName CHARACTER(39)
   ,Age SMALLINT
   ,Code CHARACTER(4) );

Example: Querying with the ANSI-Compliant Form

Here is the ANSI-compliant form of the Teradata SQL NULLIFZERO(Age) function, and is more versatile.

SELECT FullName, NULLIF (Age,0) FROM Membership;

Example: Blank Spaces

In the following query, blanks indicate no value.

SELECT FullName, NULLIF (Code, '    ') FROM Membership;

Example: Querying for NULLIF in an Expression with an Arithmetic Operator

SELECT NULLIF(Age,0) * 100;
