James,
Simply add the comma (or any other separator) to the search expression. Make sure that lcList terminates with the separator:
lcList = '100,101,102,103,'
lcCmd  = 'select cname from customers where CHARINDEX(RTRIM(CAST(icustomerid as char(20)))+',', ?lcList)>0'
? sqlexec(lnHandle,lcCmd)

>>>I'm having difficutly using the IN operator in the parameter statement in a remote view against a SQL Server table. Here is my view:

>>> Customers.icustomerid,;
>>> Customers.cname,;
>>> Status.cstatus ;
>>> FROM Customers ;

>>> WHERE CAST(Customers.icustomerid as CHAR(20)) IN (?vp_cCustomerIdList) ;
>>> ORDER BY Customers.cname
