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

如果你使用的是SQL Server 2008(或更高版本)，那么这是更好的解决方案:

SELECT o.OrderId,
       (SELECT MAX(Price)
        FROM (VALUES (o.NegotiatedPrice),(o.SuggestedPrice)) AS AllPrices(Price))
FROM Order o

所有的信用和投票都应该去Sven对一个相关问题的答案，“多列的SQL MAX ?” 我说这是“最佳答案”，因为:

It doesn't require complicating your code with UNION's, PIVOT's, UNPIVOT's, UDF's, and crazy-long CASE statments. It isn't plagued with the problem of handling nulls, it handles them just fine. It's easy to swap out the "MAX" with "MIN", "AVG", or "SUM". You can use any aggregate function to find the aggregate over many different columns. You're not limited to the names I used (i.e. "AllPrices" and "Price"). You can pick your own names to make it easier to read and understand for the next guy. You can find multiple aggregates using SQL Server 2008's derived_tables like so: SELECT MAX(a), MAX(b) FROM (VALUES (1, 2), (3, 4), (5, 6), (7, 8), (9, 10) ) AS MyTable(a, b)

对于上面关于大数字的答案，你可以在加减法之前做乘法。它有点笨重，但不需要石膏。(我不能说速度，但我认为它仍然非常快)

选择0.5*((@val1+@val2)+ ABS(@val1 - @val2)

更改

选择 @val1*0.5+@val2*0.5 + ABS（@val1*0.5 - @val2*0.5）

如果你想避免强制转换，至少有一个替代方案。

SELECT o.OrderId,   
--MAX(o.NegotiatedPrice, o.SuggestedPrice)  
(SELECT MAX(v) FROM (VALUES (o.NegotiatedPrice), (o.SuggestedPrice)) AS value(v)) as ChoosenPrice  
FROM Order o

select OrderId, (
    select max([Price]) from (
        select NegotiatedPrice [Price]
        union all
        select SuggestedPrice
    ) p
) from [Order]

最简单的形式是……

CREATE FUNCTION fnGreatestInt (@Int1 int, @Int2 int )
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN

    IF @Int1 >= ISNULL(@Int2,@Int1)
        RETURN @Int1
    ELSE
        RETURN @Int2

    RETURN NULL --Never Hit

END
