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.
