Re: SQL select using where in -- RPG400-L

I think that the resulting WHERE clause is like this -

Where pypmtt in '(''CK'', ''BT'')'

That's definitely not what you want, I bet. This is what is described in the manual as

expression IN expression

and is the same as

expression = expression

I think you need to create the SQL statement as a string, then prepare it.

The docs seems to suggest that parameter markers (question marks) are not allowed in the parentheses after the IN. I'm not sure, but it looks that way.

I have a SQL clause embedded in a RPG program. The statement inserts
records directly into a file. In the where clause, I have an 'in'
statement using a variable:

Where pypmtt in :CheckType

using debug the value of checktype = ('CK', 'BT'). This inserts 0 records.
If I hardcode and replace checktype with ('CK', 'BT'), the program inserts
the the correct records. There are other variables in the select statement
that are not causing issues.
What am I doing wrong?
