ColdFusion, SQL, Comparison exception while executing IN.
Having a problem using an 'IN' clause while querying a query in coldfusion 8. here is the original query:
<cfquery name="allcrafts" datasource="#APPLICATION.DSN#"> select e.craft_ID, e.LAST_NAME, e.FIRST_NAME, e.EMP_NUM, e.ADDRESS1, e.CITY, e.PROVINCE, e.ZIP, e.PHONE, e.PHONE2, e.EMAIL, e.DATE_RECIEVED, e.DATE_ENTERED, e.BIRTH_DATE, e.DATE_HIRED, e.DATE_TERM, e.C_ID, e.RESUME, e.EXTENSION, c.CRAFT_DESC from tbl_craft_employees e, tbl_crafts c where (e.C_ID = c.craft_ID) AND date_entered BETWEEN #CreateODBCDate(DateAdd("d", APPLICATION.datenow, -184))# AND #CreateODBCDate(APPLICATION.datenow)# order by last_name </cfquery>
Here is the query of the above query:
<cfquery dbtype="query" name="crafts"> select craft_ID, last_name, first_name, emp_num, address1, city, province, zip, phone, phone2, email, date_recieved, date_entered, c_ID FROM allcrafts WHERE #URL.cID# IN ('allcrafts.c_ID') order by last_name </cfquery>
And I get this error
Query Of Queries runtime error. Comparison exception while executing IN. Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The IN operator does not support comparison between the following types: Left hand side expression type = "LONG". Right hand side expression type = "STRING".
I have tried wrapping the #URL.cID# in '#URL.cID#' in an attempt to change it from a LONG datatype to a STRING. When I do so, I get this error:
Query Of Queries syntax error. Encountered "1900 \'\'. Incorrect conditional expression, Expected one of [like|null|between|in|comparison] condition, Unrecognized comparison operator,
