my $sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE"; foreach $record_id ($record_ids) { $sql .= " record_id EQ $record_id OR "; }
Needs some tweeking but hopefully you get the idea (the last one needs to not include the OR). HTH Nigel -----Original Message----- From: Mariusz [mailto:mkubis22@;hotmail.com] Sent: 12 November 2002 17:34 To: perl Subject: perl & MySQL I would like to be able to select records from the a table where record_id and $record_id from my @record_ids matches. I know I could go through a loop and send a SELECT query for each element in the array but is there a better way? How can I accomplish the same but only sending one query? thanks, Mariusz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
