Hi ALl,
Can I use the NOT IN clause in cobol program as below ?
Using STRING verb, assign the value of 'a','b','c' to WS-NOT-IN and use the same in SQL
| Code: |
EXECL SQL
SELECT FIELD1,FIELD2, FROM TABLENAME WHERE
FIELD3 NOT IN (:WS-NOT-IN)
END-EXEC |
Is this valid code ? I tried and it does not seems to work.
Coded for you - next time do it yourself |

Did you get a syntax error/warning or unexpected results?
If the former - what's the manual say?
If the latter, what did you expect and what did you get?
Finally - if you were a teacher or supervisor, aren't these questions you'd ask? |

| Easy and optimum way is to put them in a GTT and do a inner join. |

Where are you having problems? The COBOL code? You didn't post any but you posted in the COBOL section of the forum. The SQL code? In which case why post in the COBOL section and not the DB2 section?
"It does not work" is a senseless statement without the information stating how it didn't work - messages, status codes. Provide the missing information and someone will be able to help.
p.s. You appear to have a ',' too many. |

In SPUFI it would be not possible to specify the host variable, which is the only one under question in this example: how exactly the DB2 preprocessor does handle this EXEC SQL?
It’ very easy to run a tiny test; I don’t have access to the system right now. |

| You can always put them in a separate OR three times. Host variable will not work. |

| Or he could simply remove the extra comma (after field2) and that would make the query conform to the syntax rules. |

| Right, that's one of the error to fix before fixing the Where. |
