Thanks François, I suspected as much. I've tried doing things like: 35','36','37
, but the report tool just escapes the ' with a backslash. Very frustrating! I guess I could use an OR, but I don't know how many values would be passed each time. I guess I'll need to write a custom cgi script which outputs some JSON for what I want.

Let's say the <<BIBIDS>> value is : 34,35,36 With the IN operator, you have to get the query this way : IN(34,35,36) but with the <<BIBIDS>>, you'll get IN('34,35,36') instead. The query will look for the expression '34,35,36' which is not a biblionumber. Therefore, you don't have any result. I guess you could use multiple "OR"... Hope it helps!
