Louis Davidson shows a quick SSIS function to replace NULL values:
Which I looked up every..single..time I used it. “?” means THEN…not IF? “:” means ELSE? Huh? I know this comes from one of those cool languages that I have never mastered, but as I was searching for the syntax again a few days ago, I found REPLACENULL. I had never seen this function before, so I figured I might not be the only one. And perhaps if a commenter feels like telling me how dumb I am to not know about other new expression features I will not be offended. REPLACENULL won’t replace every use of the these and the other symbols one must use for SSIS expressions, it does replace one of the more common ones.
Click through for usage. It’s a bit easier to understand than the ternary operator. To answer Louis’s question, a ? b : c comes from C# syntax.
