Cancel that...I just found it. there is a using statement where I can manually line up markers with named variables. Thanks Ryan "Ryan Hunt" <ryan.hunt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:etrdel$lil$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Microsoft guy here...bear with me. I am writing a DB2 proc that will utlize dynamic SQL to build the SQL
String
based on parameters recieved at call time. So far I've found 2 ways to include a portion of my params within the query: 1) SET SQL_STMT='SELECT * FROM books WHERE bookid=?' or 2) SET SQL_STMT='SELECT * FROM books WHERE bookid=' || CAST(parm1 as varchar(x)) My issues are that with option 1 the lining up of paramter markers (?)
seem
to be based on the order they are defined in the procedure. (i.e. the
first
? get the first defined parameter, the second get the second and so on). This will not work for me in this particular proc. My other issue is simply an academic one. On the DBMS I am accustomed to, not actually paramterizing your queries is a last resort type of thing.
So,
I have been trying to avoid it on the AS400 as well (maybe without reason though...). Anyway, is there a way to pass named variables/parameters to my D-SQL? Thanks in advance. Ryan -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing
