Hi Experts,

How we can find minimum of 3 or more columns other than using nested CASE?

I want to find minimum of records in a row not in entire table.

Currently I am using nested CASE, but it will be very complicated when we need to find min of more columns

Is there anything better than below -

     Case
         When (Col1 <= Col2) And (Col1 <= Col3)
             Then Col1
         When (Col2 <= Col1) And (Col2 <= Col3)
             Then Col2
         Else Col3
     End

If columns to be compared are more, it will be complicated.

Thanks,

Sughesh.
