Re: imbed sql in rpg quesion using "in"

Just a thought experiment. How about using an indicator variable to specify the number of items to consider? Something like:

IN(:noelem:hostarray)

Wouldn't that be handy?

I'm afraid that's not possible. With static SQL you cannot put a list into a single host variable. It would work with dynamic SQL.

Be a nice enhancement though ... anyone know if an RFE exists for that?

"Allow array to be used as host variable for SQL 'in' selection criteria".

Identifying how many items are in the array might be tough though.
