correct syntax for eval()

[sherrysun]

hello all:
I am a newbie with this php and mssql. I was very happy to find the function eval() I can use in this conversion. I use a table to store all the values and conditions. I will use the eval() to locate a correct value base on the conditions that stored in the requirement field. However, I am getting a syntax error from mssql. I wonder if anyone could help me out. This is what I got:
in the table I got 2 fields: value, condition. Let's say, value is 1000 and the '!empty($f_name)'. In my php code, I will have a query:
select * from price_list where eval(trim(condition)) ==.t.

thanks
sherry

I'm not sure whether I understand properly, but it depends on the type of the column in the table.

You should do

"SELECT * FROM price_list WHERE condition" in case the condition is boolean or

"SELECT * FROM price_list WHERE condition = $some_variable"
