I'm sure I knew the answer to this and even used it but for some reason I am currently brain dead.
I want to pass in from VFP a comma separated string of character values to this where clause
WHERE Future_change.Symbol IN (@symbollist)
If I use
WHERE Future_change.Symbol IN ('ES032','AXA','GOOG')
in SSMS I get exactly the results I want.
Even in SSMS, though, I can't remember how to set the value in @symbollist ( varchar(100))
so as to get the equivalent of ['ES032','AXA','GOOG']
I'm sure I asked this before but for some reason the answer doesn't stick.
TIA

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
