SQL：其中[columnName] = CASE WHEN（条件）然后则为NULL ELSE [columnName]结束

Question

Want to run a query in Sybase to do the following:

When condition is true, only select records where columnName is null, otherwise, anything else. However, we know that to compare NULL, " = NULL" is not right, we should use "IS NULL" instead.

How can I integrate "IS NULL" to the query then?

select * from tableName
where columnName = CASE WHEN (condition) THEN NULL ELSE columnName END

Answer 1

You could try this alternative query that doesn't use CASE:

select * from tableName
where ((condition) AND columnName IS NULL) Or (Not (condition))
