Yes, you do need to quote character values in your SQL select statement in the Net.Data DTW_SQL function.

Subject: Re: [WEB400] Net.Data - extra blank rows and an SQLSTATE 22003
I was doing the following:
select a.ndc_upc_hri, INGDRGNM
from medispan.actingrd A
where a.ndc_upc_hri = $(NDC)
$NDC is from an input box on the page.
The table column ndc_upc_hri is a CHAR(20). However the values in it are all numeric.
So for instance I might be looking for 00002080303.
I changed the query to
select a.ndc_upc_hri, INGDRGNM
from medispan.actingrd A
where a.ndc_upc_hri = ‘$(NDC)’
And my error went away! J
Do I always need to quote character values? Or is this some funkyness due to the numeric value in a character column?
Strange that it'd work as far as returning data, and only give an error if there was one row to return...

So far, every time the query results in 1 row, I see that row, a
bunch of blanks and the error. It doesn't matter if I use the
default report or a custom one.
