Hi Someone please help me out with this: I am passing a string in this format (215,216) from the python script to the Zsql method. The SQl query should have the following form: select * from employees where id in (215,216) but is as follows: select * from employees where id in '(215,216)' which does not give the required result.The id is of data type string/nb. It doesnt accept integer values. A sample usage is given in the Zope documentation **************************************** select * from employees <dtml-sqlgroup where> <dtml-sqltest salary op="gt" type="float" optional> <dtml-and> <dtml-sqltest first type="nb" multiple optional> <dtml-and> <dtml-sqltest last type="nb" multiple optional> </dtml-sqlgroup> If first=Bob and last=Smith, McDonald it renders: select * from employees where (first='Bob' and last in ('Smith', 'McDonald') ) *****************************************8 But it is not working when I tried it. I get the following result select * from employees where (first='Bob' and last = 'Smith,McDonald' ) Please help me out!!Is there any other type for declaring the database fields other than int,float,string and nb.I am using Zope version 2.5.1 . The documentation covers Zope 2.5. Thanks Anitha _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
