这里有一个案例示例，应该处理null，并将与旧版本的MSSQL一起工作。这是基于一个流行例子中的内联函数:

case
  when a >= b then a
  else isnull(b,a)
end

在MemSQL中执行以下操作:

-- DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS InlineMax;
DELIMITER //
CREATE FUNCTION InlineMax(val1 INT, val2 INT) RETURNS INT AS
DECLARE
  val3 INT = 0;
BEGIN
 IF val1 > val2 THEN
   RETURN val1;
 ELSE
   RETURN val2;
 END IF; 
END //
DELIMITER ;

SELECT InlineMax(1,2) as test;

你可以这样做:

select case when o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice 
then o.NegotiatedPrice
else o.SuggestedPrice
end

其他答案都很好，但如果你不得不担心有NULL值，你可能会想要这个变体:

SELECT o.OrderId, 
   CASE WHEN ISNULL(o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice) > ISNULL(o.SuggestedPrice, o.NegotiatedPrice)
        THEN ISNULL(o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice)
        ELSE ISNULL(o.SuggestedPrice, o.NegotiatedPrice)
   END
FROM Order o

以下是@Scott Langham用简单的NULL处理给出的答案:

SELECT
      o.OrderId,
      CASE WHEN (o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice OR o.SuggestedPrice IS NULL) 
         THEN o.NegotiatedPrice 
         ELSE o.SuggestedPrice
      END As MaxPrice
FROM Order o

SQL Server 2012引入IIF:

SELECT 
    o.OrderId, 
    IIF( ISNULL( o.NegotiatedPrice, 0 ) > ISNULL( o.SuggestedPrice, 0 ),
         o.NegotiatedPrice, 
         o.SuggestedPrice 
    )
FROM 
    Order o

建议在使用IIF时处理NULL，因为boolean表达式两侧的NULL将导致IIF返回false_value(而不是NULL)。
