If you can build your SQL string with column_name exactly what is the problem with adding it a 2nd time?
How do you build your SQL statement? And I get the same answer with either of your queries in 3.7.4 -- what version are you running and what answer are you getting? Are you saying that "1" below doesn't show up in the first query result? sqlite> create table t(i int,name string); sqlite> insert into t values(1,NULL); sqlite> insert into t values(2,'two'); sqlite> select * from t where i in (1,2,3,null); i|name 1| 2|two sqlite> select * from t where i in (1,2,3) or column_name is NULL; Error: no such column: column_name sqlite> select * from t where i in (1,2,3) or i is NULL; i|name 1| 2|two Michael D.

Putting it this way: SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name in(1,2,3,null) causes that in() ignores null value without giving any error. I need to add last part of this query to a function that must be column_name agnostic, so that is a reason that otherwise simple workaround is out of question here. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/How-to-search-for-multiple-values-in-a-column-including-null-without-repeating-column-name---tp31978469p31978469.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
