Hi, I'm looking at a system that I have not touched for some years and
wonder if there is a way to improve this code. This all works, but is
there a better or more efficient way? I can't think of how to combine
them into one 'where' statement.
Basically I look for a part based on increasingly tight conditions.
/* search conditions
0 partno only,
1 partno & location
2 partno & Trans_type
3 partno & location & Trans_type */

input parameters
locsearch char(20),
locsearchtype integer,
loclocation char(1),
loctransaction char(1)

begin
for select s.partno,s.morefields.....
from stock s
where (:locsearchtype=0
and s.partno=:locsearch)
or (:locsearchtype=1
and s.partno=:locsearch
and s.location=:loclocation)
or (:locsearchtype=2
and s.partno=:locsearch
and s.trans_type=:loctransaction)
or (:locsearchtype=3
and s.partno=:locsearch
and s.trans_type=:loctransaction
and s.location=:loclocation)
into :partno_out,:morefields_out.....
do
suspend;
end

Thanks for any advice.
Alan
