I was doing the following:

select a.ndc_upc_hri, INGDRGNM

from medispan.actingrd A

where a.ndc_upc_hri = $(NDC)



$NDC is from an input box on the page.



The table column ndc_upc_hri is a CHAR(20). However the values in it are
all numeric.



So for instance I might be looking for 00002080303.



I changed the query to

select a.ndc_upc_hri, INGDRGNM

from medispan.actingrd A

where a.ndc_upc_hri = ‘$(NDC)’



And my error went away! J


Do I always need to quote character values? Or is this some funkyness due
to the numeric value in a character column?


Strange that it'd work as far as returning data, and only give an error if
there was one row to return...

So far, every time the query results in 1 row, I see that row, a bunch of
blanks and the error. It doesn't matter if I use the default report or a
custom one.
