select usr
from XXX
where val in (list)
group by usr
having count(*) = number of values in list
does it but assumes that (usr, val) is unique (which can be easily
worked-around :
select usr
from (select distinct usr, val
from XXX)
group by ... )
and also that you know both the list and the number of items in the
list, which looks reasonable.
If your intent is to build the queries and the list dynamically, I'd
rather suggest storing the list into a temporary table.
