Hi Jay,

I've run into that before. The problem is that as far as SQL is concerned, l_objects is a single entry in the list.

You would have to have something like

 where objname in (:l_objects1, :l_objects2, :l_objects3...)

which is difficult if you don't know the exact number of entries that would be in the list.

I'm doing an embedded rpgle sql select on qsys2.object_statistics, and my

where objname in (:l_objects)

l_objects = char(2048) and will contain a comma delimited string of
objects, just as sql "IN" would want to see... ie. 'OBJECT1', 'OBJECT2'

in debug it looks fine... I even tried (trim(:l_objects))

However when I run it, I get sqlcode 100.

But if I convert the thing to dynamic sql, i can get it to work. (but I
really don't want to have to do that)...

any suggestions to make it work without dynamic?
