Multiple Parameters in Query

Hello,

I am using SQL Reporting Services 2000 with Oracle database.

I need to pass in a parameter that will have 1 to many values.

The ORACLE SQL looks like this

SELECT
  i.J_no,
  l.assaynumber
FROM
   instrument i
WHERE
  i.J_no IN('34000701','34000702', ...list of many values ...)          //..... many possible values here
  and assaynumber IN(310,344,501 ...list of many values ...)                  //.....many possible values here)

 I tried something like this

WHERE
  i.J_no IN( :JVALUES )   where :JVALUES = '34000701','340002702','340000791'

but that did not work


Thank You
Chuck

Thanks for the input, but it is a string, I did try the other field assaynumber without quotes because it is numeric.

Thanks

Thanks both for the comments. Unfortunatly This cant be done in my situation.

I did try jimhorn  suggestion but did not work. Derricks would work and I thought of that  however I am in an FDA Validated environment. Creating a new table would be about as simple as getting the Pope to say "Priests can Marry".

So I am going to use a data grid and fill it. They can export the grid to excel and do what the want with it.

Thanks
