Hi,

I have a case where I need to select records when one of three integer fields equals to some set value. For example, say table has fields Fld1 (Int), Fld2 (int), Fld3 (int). I want to find all records where a one of the fields has value nNumber. So the way I could do it as:
select * from MyTable where Fld1 = nNumber or Fld2 = nNumber or Fld3 = nNumber
Is there a faster approach that would hopefully work in both VFP and SQL Server? Note that the table has an index on Fld1, and Fld2, and Fld3.

TIA.
