SQL use CASE statement in WHERE IN clause

Question

Is it posible to use case in where in clause? Something like this:

 DECLARE @Status VARCHAR(50);
 SET @Status=\'published\';

 SELECT * FRO         


        

Answer 1

I realize this has been answered, but there is a slight issue with the accepted solution. It will return false positives. Easy to fix:

SELECT * FROM Products P    
WHERE (@Status='published' and P.Status IN (1,3))
   or (@Status='standby' and P.Status IN  (2,5,9,6))
   or (@Status='deleted' and P.Status IN (4,5,8,10))
   or (@Status not in ('published','standby','deleted') and P.Status IN (1,2))

Parentheses aren't needed (although perhaps easier to read hence why I included them).
