Use a loop to build the query string (and the parameters array passed to execute).

Alexander

Can you show an example with code building the query string for the arrays?

use strict;
use List::MoreUtils qw/zip/;
use DBI;

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 $sql_part = join ' or ', map {'(reg_num = ? AND month = ?)'} 1 .. @
+reg_num;

my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$myserver",$u, $p,);

my $sth = $dbh->prepare(
    "SELECT name, last_name, reg_num, month, year
    FROM   members
    WHERE  $sql_part AND year='2009");
$sth->execute(zip @reg_num, @month);

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
