RE: IF Exists within Case statements
CODE
WHEN '123' THEN COALESCE((select strategy1 from ec_hldlot where portcd='ABC' and sec_sym=@SYMBOL),(select strategy1 from ec_tradelot where portcd='ABC' and symbol=@SYMBOL),'NEW_STRAT')
WHEN '456' THEN COALESCE(......)
ELSE 'bad_manager'
END
Hope This Helps, PH.
