[SOLVED] Is there a way to conditionally use default column values in an INSERT..SELECT statement?

Is there a way to conditionally use default column values in an INSERT..SELECT statement?

I've got code similar to the following in a stored procedure that inserts a row into a table, I'd like to set the last column (FieldD) to @prmSomeValue unless it is null, otherwise just use the default value defined for that column.

IF (@prmSomeValue IS NULL)
   INSERT INTO MyTable (fieldA,FieldB,FieldC)  
      SELECT A,B,C 
      FROM MyOtherTable
ELSE
   INSERT INTO MyTable (fieldA,FieldB,FieldC,FieldD)  
      SELECT A,B,C,@prmSomeValue 
      FROM MyOtherTable

This works, but violates the DRY principle. I'm trying to find some way to do this with a single insert statement. Something along the lines of the following pseudocode.

   INSERT INTO MyTable (fieldA,FieldB,FieldC,FieldD)  
      SELECT A,B,C,ISNULL(@prmSomeValue,DEFAULT)
      FROM MyOtherTable

Anyone have any ideas?

Update - One more twist
The default constraint is not a literal value, but a function as shown below.

...DEFAULT (suser_sname()) FOR [FieldD]

Update
I finally punted and chose the lesser of evils and just copied the default value function into my query instead of falling through to the default configured for the column. I don't love it, but it gets the job done with less repetition in my query.

   INSERT INTO MyTable (fieldA,FieldB,FieldC,FieldD)  
      SELECT A,B,C,ISNULL(@prmSomeValue,suser_sname())
      FROM MyOtherTable

Solution

Since essentially this is what SQL Server is doing, you could do something like this to at least avoid two nearly identical statements (pseudo-code):

INSERT (columnA,B,C) ... ;

IF @prmSomeValue IS NOT NULL
    UPDATE ... ;

I don't think there is a way to COALESCE with the default value.
