Or were you looking for a simple host variable?
D myvar         2a
/free
 myvar='IN';
/endfree
/exec sql
 Update myfile
   Set taxrate=.06
  Where state=:myvar
/end-sql

The colon indicates a host variable.

Yet, parameter markers (?) are nice.  It's a matter of using the right
tool at the right time.
