Re: Issue with regular expressions.

Never mind. I figured it out.

I'm trying to use regular expressions to validate that an IP address
is valid.

When I do this,

exec sql
select
REGEXP_COUNT('192.168.140.230', :ip_regex)
into :count from SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1;

It's working fine. However, if I use a variable to hold the IP address
it fails. I've tried char fields and varchar fields and it always
fails. This is on 7.3.
