SELECT CASE format WHEN '%' THEN amount ELSE 0 END

I don't know if this fits your bill. But if it does not, please post:

o CREATE TABLE statement for your table(s)
o INSERT statements with sample data.
o The desired result given the sample.

This helps to clarify what you are looking for, and makes it easy to copy
and paste to develop a tested solution.
