How can I declare a Boolean parameter in SQL statement?

sql, sql-server

Solution

The same way you declare any other variable, just use the `bit` type:

DECLARE @MyVar bit
Set @MyVar = 1  /* True */
Set @MyVar = 0  /* False */

SELECT * FROM [MyTable] WHERE MyBitColumn = @MyVar

Note this is semantically different from a true boolean. The 1/0 values won't always just map to true/false the way you might expect.
