Hi.. 1) I was trying to create a IF Condition in stored procedure where i need to compare if old value and new value is present/not present in the database. Dont know the Syntax to write the above said query in Stored procedure. 2) I have created a variabl name 'add', 'change', 'remove'. The old value and new value are two different columns in the table. What i want is : If old value is null and new value is present then 'add' get incremented by 1, if old value is present and it has been modified in new value and if the old value string does not match with the new value then 'change' get incremented by 1, if old value is present and it has bee deleted in new value then 'remove' get incremented by 1. Kindly help me out as early as possible as these is where i stuck for the last few days and i need to resolve this soon. Abhishek
