I think you are looking for something like this

select x,

case when x = 71008 then ‘71007’

else x

end

from table......

SELECT * FROM test;

a

---

1

2

3

SELECT a,

CASE WHEN a=1 THEN 'one'

WHEN a=2 THEN 'two'

ELSE 'other'

END

FROM test;

a | case

---+-------

1 | one

2 | two

3 | other

Hi

I need help, I need to change every result with x being 71008 to be 71007
in the select query below.

SELECT x, sum( value ) as value from table where ……..

Results will show as follows but if the query finds x as 71008 then it must
make it 71007 instead. Is this possible?

71015 | 101240.00

71008 | -19351.34
