SQL syntax in SQL Server 2019

[nector]

Can someone help me correct what is wrong with these letters in the SQL syntax below:

(1) "D" & "C3" line 16

SELECT DISTINCTROW tblProducts.ProductID, tblProducts.ProductName, tblProducts.BarCode, tblSalesTax.TaxClass, tblPricing.Prices, tblPricing.RRP, tblSalesTax.VatRate, tblSalesTax.Tourism, tblSalesTax.Insurance, tblSalesTax.TourismLevy, tblPricing.TaxInclusive, tblSalesTax.InsuranceRate, tblSalesTax.InsuranceRate AS Premium, IIf( ([TaxClass] = "D"), Round( IIf(([TaxClass] = "D"), [Prices],([Prices] / 1.16)), 2 ), Round( IIf(([TaxClass] = "C3"), [Prices],([Prices] / 1.16)), 2 ) ) AS ExportPrice, tblPricing.NoTaxes, tblProducts.Sales FROM tblSalesTax INNER JOIN ( tblProducts INNER JOIN ( tblcartergory INNER JOIN tblPricing ON tblcartergory.CartID = tblPricing.CartID ) ON tblProducts.ProductID = tblPricing.ProductID ) ON tblSalesTax.IDClass = tblPricing.IDClass WHERE (((tblProducts.Sales) = Yes)) ORDER BY tblProducts.ProductID DESC;

Have you tried using single quotes in place of double quotes?

 

[GPGeorge]

Yup, theDBGuy is right about the proper string delimiter for T-SQL as opposed to Access SQL.

Logically:

IIf(
   ([TaxClass] = "D"),
   Round(
     IIf(([TaxClass] = "D"), [Prices],([Prices] / 1.16)),
     2
   ),
   Round(
     IIf(([TaxClass] = "C3"), [Prices],([Prices] / 1.16)),
     2
   )
) AS ExportPrice,

That only needs to be one IF instead of 3.

As others pointed out correctly, the primary delimiter for string literals in T-SQL is a single quote.
You can also enable double quotes as delimiter by setting SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER OFF. This can also be configured in the ODBC connection settings. However, I would only see this as a temporary solution during an migration or for legacy applications. Some SQL Server functionality requires QUOTED_IDENTIFIER=ON. So, I would try to only use single quotes for any future development work.

Many thanks for the comments

Round(IIf(TaxClass = "D" OR TaxClass = "C3", Prices, (Prices / 1.16)),2) AS ExportPrice,

Or different from:

Round(
  Prices / IIF(TaxClass IN ('D', 'C3'), 1, 1.16),
  2
) AS ExportPrice

 

[Galaxiom]

Using a hard coded formula isn't a great idea.

A better plan would be to store the factor in a table related to TaxClass. Any future changes to the values or even a new TaxClass can be simply updated in the table.

Not sure In() works there. Did you test?

Yes, works for me (in T-SQL)

SELECT TOP 20
  i.InvoiceID,
  i.RegNo,
  i.Amount,
  ROUND(
    i.Amount * IIF(i.RegNo IN ('772 LTM', 'LC10 CPK'), 1, 2),
    2
  ) AS ExportPrice
FROM Invoices i
;
