I had never really played with Coalesce before. It has made my SQL and code much simpler as I can now Coalesce the three fields into one and display it!

Coalesce(A, B, C) AS DispText, is what I ended up with :)

p.s. my Brazilian colleague says hello !

if the other will be alays null why do you need to concat it ???

try this:

select A || Coalesce(B, '') from MyTable
