Yes, it does need to be in single quotes for the sql menu. I am also using Remedy 7 on Solaris/Oracle so that should work for you as well.

You just have to use the field ID instead of the name. SELECT value FROM table WHERE field = '$REMEDYFIELDID$' I use that in many sql menus, works just fine...

I have done it in Search menus successfully...don't think I've tried it with SQL....try turning on SQL Logging in the client when you open the window and verify that the SQL being passed is correct. ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arsl...@arslist.org] On Behalf Of Marquez Rankin Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 10:22 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Is there anyway to pass a parameter to SQL Menu? ** Yeah we tried that with no success.

I need to pass the current request number (or instance ID) into this SQL Menu Query so it will return a list based on data within the active request. See the SQL Statement below. I should not have to hard code the Instance ID and of course this will only serve one record. Any word on this?
