Hello all,

What's the best way to use a NOT statement in an if statement. I'm trying to accomplish something similar to the below.

| eval x_height=if(isnull(x_height) AND NOT (sourcetype=mysourcetypeHere),"Not Defined",x_height)

This is more clear:

| eval x_height=if((sourcetype=="mysourcetypeHere"), null(), coalesce(x_height, "Not Defined"))
