SQL - Based on YES or NULL value, assign new value AND concatenate new values
up vote

favorite
I have six unique columns (let's just call them A, B, C, D, E, F) that all have either YES or NULL as the value. In a new column (let's call it NEW) I need to input the column name (A, B, C, D, E, F) if the value is YES. I also need these values to be concatenated, separated by a comma.
I've been playing around with SELECT/CASE/IF/THEN/ELSE statements, but haven't had any success.
Any guidance that can be offered is appreciated.

If A = YES, B = YES, C = NULL, D = NULL, E = YES, F = NULL then the NEW column would equal: A, B, E.

You can use CONCAT
:
SELECT CONCAT( CASE WHEN A = 'YES' THEN 'A' END,
',' + CASE WHEN B = 'YES' THEN 'B' END,
',' + CASE WHEN C = 'YES' THEN 'C' END,
',' + CASE WHEN D = 'YES' THEN 'D' END,
',' + CASE WHEN E = 'YES' THEN 'E' END) NEW
FROM dbo.YourTable
;
Thank you very much! Looks like I was heading in the right direction, but getting a visual always helps.
