RE: Include Numeric Field In SQL String

I wanted to thank you on that Rob.  I actually found a need to use that the
other day.  I found this to be a better option than concatenating a the
string together.

Have you look at parameter markers instead?
c                   eval      sqlstmt = %trim(sqlstmt) +

RE: Include Numeric Field In SQL String






Matt,


I ran into the same thing in the past two weeks trying to assemble a
PREPARE
statement.  The method I used derived the character value of the numeric
field:

SqlStmt = 'Select * From FILENAME Where DATECYMD Is Between ' +
%Char(FromCYMD: 'Z') + ' And ' + %Char(ToCYMD: 'Z') ' Order By DATECYMD,
INVOICE# For Read Only'

The edit code `Z` will put the field into the string as a character value
with leading zeros suppressed.  I used this rather than a few other
methods
discussed because I had eight different permutations of my record
selection
which included a varying number of fields.

Subject: Include Numeric Field in SQL String


I have a need to pass a string to a procedure that will execute an SQL
statement.  Is there a way to include a numeric field with this?  I've
tried
a few things, buy they've been unsuccessful.  I've done this is the past,
but can't locate the example.

  In the below example, fields 2 and 5 are numeric.  This example fails:

  c                   eval      sqlstmt = %trim(sqlstmt) +
c                             %trim(insert) + ' ' +
c                             ' ' + %trim(filnam) +
c                             ' ' + %trim(fields ) +
c                             ' VALUES(' +
c                             Q + Value1 + Q + ',' +
c                             Value2 +
c                             Q + Value3 + Q + ',' +
c                             Q + Value4 + Q + ',' +
c                             Value5 +')'


  TIA,

  Matt
