How to write where clause for a Bit column?

I have a table which has the following columns with data types:

tblProducts:

ProductID int
ProductName nvarchar
IsValue bit (its either 0 or 1)
Rank nvarchar

So when I write a select statement how should I set the value for IsValue - meaning with single quotes or without any quotes as follows:

SELECT ProductID, ProductName, IsValue
FROM tblProducts
WHERE IsValue = 0 ORDER BY Rank

Is the above one correct or I should put the 0 within quotes or any other way?

SQL Server needs no quotes for bit fields; so if that's your DBMS, there you are.

If this post contains any code, I may or may not have tested it. It's probably just example code, so no getting knickers in a bunch over a typo, OK? If it doesn't have basic error checking in it, such as object detection or checking if objects are null before using them, put that in there. I'm giving examples, not typing up your whole app for you. You run code at your own risk.
