IIF statment in an SQL statment.

I am trying to convert a logical and date fields into number fields. I am
using IIF() but I can't seem to get the syntax correct. Help Please.
SELECT MagazineName, COUNT(Quantity) AS QTY, iif(RenewalFlag = flase, 0,
1) AS REFL, iif(CancelDate is not null,0,1) as CLRFL
FROM Order2
GROUP BY MagazineName
The overall goal is to
1) count then number of records
2) count how many are renewal's
3) count how many are canceled
example:
CHILD 50 5 1
Scott BurkeHey Scott,
Use the CASE statement in SQL, not IIF. Like this:
SELECT MagazineName, COUNT(Quantity) AS QTY,CASE WHEN RenewalFlag =false THEN 0 ELSE 1 END AS REFL, CASE WHEN CancelDate is not null THEN 0 ELSE
1 END as CLRFL
FROM Order2
GROUP BY MagazineName

The case statement looks a lot like an IIF() statement to me.
Time to do some research.
Thanks again.
