Me using SQL Server 2000. It is possible using CASE statement in INSERT statement? Did anyone have a success sample?

You can just change this, which will fail

INSERT mytable (col1, col2)
VALUES (CASE WHEN @a = @b THEN @c ELSE @d END, 'other value')

to this, which will work

INSERT mytable (col1, col2)
SELECT CASE WHEN @a = @b THEN @c ELSE @d END, 'other value'
