Hi,

I build a SQL select using TEXTMERGE as follows (simplied)
TEXT TO cSqlSelect TEXTMERGE NOSHOW PRETEXT 15
      select CAST(0 AS BIT) AS SEL_REC, myfield1 from mytable
ENDTEXT
The above works for SQL Server. But for VFP I need to change the CAST(0 AS BIT) AS SEL_REC to be .F. AS SEL_REC. There is a variable (global) that shows if the app is using SQL Server DB or VFP (variable plSqlServer .T. or .F.)
Of course I can create two TEXTMERGE statements, one for VFP and one for SQL Server. But, how would I change the actual expression above that would, based on a variable plSqlServer?

TIA
