Hi Monks!

I am trying to run this code but it does not work due to the second "IN" on the query, that's where I think the problem is, I can't get it solved because of the first element of the first array not been matched with "only" the first element of the second array, it should be matching like, 12345 = 03 (the first element of the first array equal the first element of the second array) instead, the "IN" is checking for all the values of the array month and it is giving me the wrong results. What I am looking for is 12345=03 and the same for all the elements on the arrays. Can I build this using Perl?
Can the "WHERE" be formatted with the arrays values to be like:

where $reg_num_values[0]=$month_values[0]


Or can I to this for both arrays using the first join(","...

Here is some code to show what I am trying to do:

my @reg_num = qw/12345 98564 33234 112345 87564 2345678 938566 1234486 + 223456 123488/; my @month = qw/03 01 01 10 05 11 03 05 02 09/; my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$myserver",$u, $p,); my $reg_num_values = join("," ,map { $dbh->quote($_) } @reg_num ); my $month_values = join("," ,map { $dbh->quote($_) } @month ); my $statement = "SELECT name, last_name, reg_num, month, year FROM members WHERE reg_num IN ($reg_num_values) AND month IN ($month_values) AND year='2009' my $sth = $dbh->prepare($statement); $sth->execute();


Thanks for all the help!
