Walden,

Thanks for your suggestion...I went with it but now I'm getting a different
error which I don't know how to solve since the string looks ok to me but
yet the execution of the sp complains. Here's the string that the VB
program builds right before executing it...

"SELECT CEITM , CESER , CESTC , CESDT , CEHED FROM cohamira.CONVRPF WHERE
CENROV = 2 and CEITM in ('SA83HDC')"

This is the error that I'm getting...

Message . . . . : String constant beginning 'S ' not delimited.
Cause . . . . . : The string delimiter is missing in the constant
beginning
with 'S '. The string is treated as if it were delimited by the end
of the source file.
Recovery . . . : Delimit the string constant. Check for any missing or
extra quotation marks and apostrophes. These errors are likely to cause
other errors. Some statements may not have been processed as the result
of
either missing or extra string delimiters. Precompile the program again.

You can't get there from here... :-)

The problem you have it this, if there's one value you'd want to run:

Select * from myFile where field1 in (parm1)

but if there were two values you'd need:

Select * from myFile where field1 in (parm1, parm2)

and three:

Select * from myFile where field1 in (parm1, parm2, parm3)

A single parm can have only the single value. It's one of the uglier
truths of SQL. BTW, same problem exists in SQLServer. :-)

I would recommend you just build the SQL statement as a text string so
long as you trust the values you're putting in not to be subject to SQL
injection.

-Walden

Subject: [SystemiDotNet] Building a SQL statement...

Hello,



I'm in the middle of writing a VB app that interacts with the iSeries.
The windows form captures some data entered by the user, builds some
parameters, and executes a stored procedure to return a data set. The
problem I'm having is that one of the parameters is a list of values to
be used in an IN clause.



For example:



Select * from myFile where field1 in (parm1)



I build parm1 in VB as a list of values like this: 'VALUE1', 'VALUE2',
'VALUE3'. I include the single quotes with the parm. If I pass just
one value, I do get a data set back, but when I pass several values in
the IN expression, I don't get anything back. Has anybody done
something like this? If so, how did you make it work?



So far I have not had luck in getting a data set back. I fact, I've
been trying to call the stored procedure from iSeries navigator typing
the list of values but I have not been able to make it work. Can
anybody offer any suggestions or alternatives?







Thank you,



Antonio Mira
