Hi,

I will give and example of my current case:

DECLARE @NAME VARCHAR(15)
SET @Name = ''
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT
SELECT * FROM Employee e
WHERE e.Name = @Name

I want to pass few name in the same time, so how can I put it into the one parameter?
i want it to run in the following format:
DECLARE @NAME VARCHAR(15)
SET @Name =

SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT
SELECT * FROM Employee e
WHERE e.Name IN @Name

Thanks!

Use Dynamic SQL

DECLARE @NAME VARCHAR(15)
SET @Name = '''a'',''b'''

exec ('Select * from Employee e where e.name in ('+@Name+')')

i think you can use comma separated variables....
i have used it to pass multiple values into the parameters. write a function to split the data as CSV and then write : WHERE @Name in (select from that SPLIT Function)

or simply do


SELECT * FROM Employee e
WHERE ',' +  @Name + ',' LIKE '%,' +  e.Name + ',%'

and pass value in csv format
