Hi all

I have a view that I use at work.

My goal is:

If "data on row " = 'x' then columns should be fetched from "A table"

If "data on row" = 'Y' then fetch from "B table"

Is that possible in same column at the view query? (plsql)

Problem is that The tables I want to use do not have a common columns

if a =1 then select SAMPLE from sample_table

if a <> 1 then SELECT ANOTHER DIFFRENT from another different unique table


and my queries are very complicated with inner joins

Thanks

UNION ALL?

So what is the purpose to have them in the same view?
You want different columns in the result depending on "a"?


You have to be clearer.
Post a test case (CREATE TABLE statements) and what you actually want from these tables.

Do you mean something like this -
orclz> select
  2  (case deptno when 10 then (select sal from emp where rownum=1) when 20 then (select losal from salgrade where rownum=1) else null end)
  3  from dept;

(CASEDEPTNOWHEN10THEN(SELECTSALFROMEMPWHEREROWNUM=1)WHEN20THEN(SELECTLOSALFROMSALGRADEWHEREROWNUM=1)ELSENULLEND)
