PRESENTNNV

Syntax

Purpose

The PRESENTNNV function can be used only in the model_clause of the SELECT statement and then only on the right-hand side of a model rule. It returns expr1 when, prior to the execution of the model_clause, cell_reference exists and is not null. Otherwise it returns expr2.

Examples

In the following example, if a row containing sales for the Mouse Pad for the year 2002 exists, and the sales value is not null, then the sales value remains unchanged. If the row exists and the sales value is null, then the sales value is set to 10. If the row does not exist, then the row is created with the sales value set to 10.
