MS Access Forum / Modules / DAO / VBA / April 2008IN predicate limit?
I have an application that is Access as a Reporting frontend for an old FoxPro system - has been running successfully for a couple of years. There is a multi select list box with 100+ reps listed (details from linked foxpro data) - the user is selecting about 35 reps, a date range, and various other filtering options. She is getting 'SQL Expression' error - my guess is the IN predicate string is too long. The code builds an IN() predicate statement based on the rep selection. Is there a limit to the number of items in the IN statement? TIA >I have an application that is Access as a Reporting frontend for an old > FoxPro system - has been running successfully for a couple of years.

In the past I've built In()'s with 1000 or so autonumber primary keys, none of which exceeded 5 chars in length. To pack more in, use a comma as the separator, not comma space. I've never seen any docs that give the actual limit, though. |
