How to use parameters in report builder with a Postgresql DB using odbc?

[Bodo]

Hi all,

I am having problems using a parameter in a paginated report with a postgresql database.
I am using an ODBC connection to connect to postgresql.

This is the test query I am using:

with my_data as (
      select 0001 as customer_number, 'New York' as city 
union select 0002 as customer_number, 'Paris' as city
)
select 
    * 
from 
    my_data
where 
    city = (@city)

When I run the script, I get this error message:
An error occurred while executing the query.
ERROR [42883] ERROR: operatot does not exist: @ text;
Error while executing the query

This query works fine for an Orcale DB using this syntax:

where 
    city = (:city)

But this also fails for Postgres.

Can anyone tell me how the synax for using a parameter in the report builder is if using a Postgres DB?

Thanks in advance

Alright, 

I have found a solution to my problem with external help now. With an ODBC connection parameters are created by using the questionmark sign (?). But you are not allowed to use any namens for the parameters anymore.

If you use ? in your SQL, parameters are automatically created in the report builder.
You have to pay attention to the order of the parameters and you are not allowed to rename it afterwards.

Here's an example which works for me:
