Hi all,

I need a help regarding creating a query in Libre Office Base.

Suppose I have two tables A and B each having few columns (identical in
headings). Both the tables are linked by a common primary key (ID No).

Table A is completely filled while Table B has only few data filled.
(though all records  are equal)

Now, I wish to write a query that could do the following:
* If Value B is not blank (or less than 1), Take Value B
* If Value B is blank, Take Value A
* Input the result into another table/ query.

For instance,

Table A            Table B
ID    Value       ID    Value
1       50          1         60
2       30          2
3       40          3         40
4       35          4
5       25          5         20

Result:
Query C (or Table D)

ID    Value
1      60
2      30
3      40
4      35
5      20

Is there any way to do that??
(If the solution is in design mode, I would be very happy. But, even SQL
solutions are welcome!!)

P.S:
I have earlier worked with MS Access Databases (Only Design/ Wizard Mode).
I am entirely new to Libre Office Base.
