Author IN list...

In the below example can I not use a string variable that holds the list of
values, for example
ls_id_list = '142, 1596'
so,SELECT *
FROM sales_order
WHERE sales_rep IN (142, 1596)would look like,SELECT *
FROM sales_order
WHERE sales_rep IN (:ls_id_list)It keeps giving me a can not convert to
numeric error. I'm using the a similar SQL statement in a PowerBuilder
datawindow. and want to pass the list in as a retrieval argument.Troy.

Needs to be an array of numbers

long ll_list[]
ll_list[1] = 142
ll_list[2] = 1596

SELECT *
FROM sales_order
WHERE sales_rep IN (:ll_list)
