-----Original Message----- From: pat forbes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 14, 2003 10:30 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: works fine in access, but not cf I might have posted this twice... sorry... but after I posted the first time, I got an email that said I wasn't subscribed (even though I was at CFTalk when I posted), and I didn't see the first post so, here it goes again. Can someone tell me why the following works fine in msaccess, but returns an error in CF 4.51, sp2 SELECT accounts.accountid, accounts.streetname FROM accounts WHERE accounts.streetname In ("ANCIENT FOREST DRIVE","APPLE HOLLOW COURT") The cf error is: ------------ [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Too few parameters. Expected 2. Hint: The cause of this error is usually that your query contains a reference to a field which does not exist. You should verify that the fields included in your query exist and that you have specified their names correctly. SQL = "SELECT accounts.accountid, accounts.streetname FROM accounts WHERE accounts.streetname In ("ANCIENT FOREST DRIVE","APPLE HOLLOW COURT")" ------------- Actually, I am wanting to pass a whole slew of "street names" and replace the hard coded ones above with a variable name. I can pass the variable name (selected_streets), and all streets are conformed to be in that list but, I still cannot get the query right. I guess I could build the query with a ton of "OR's" based on what is in the list but the IN seems to be a easier to code. ie: SELECT accounts.accountid, accounts.streetname FROM accounts WHERE (0=0) AND accounts.streetname = "ANCIENT FOREST DRIVE" OR accounts.streetname ="APPLE HOLLOW COURT" OR accounts.streetname ="xxxxx etc" OR.... Any help is appreciated. -pat- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
