select last_name, first_name, phone, if(pub_email='Y',email,'')
FROM `mydatabasetable`
WHERE `current_member` = "Y" AND `pub_name` =
"Y" ORDER BY last_name ASC
The "IF" statement returns it's second
argument if the first evaluates to true, the third argument
otherwise.

want to only display the value in `email` if the value in another field,
`pub_email` = "Y" So, the resultant output would look like this, for
instance, if the value of `pub_email` ="N" for Mr. Wills:
