Question

I have problem in getting the result for below query:

SELECT setting_value FROM system_settings WHERE setting_key='hold_series' INTO @Current;

where ‘setting_value’ is a text data type and has the value as

50472949,15804527,13613881,13607299,16226328,15774405,14416070.

SELECT * from users where Id in (@Current) [and some left joins];

resulted only one record, I am sure I have all the records in users table.

If I use

SELECT * from users where Id in (50472949,15804527,13613881,13607299,16226328,15774405,14416070)

with left joins , it resulted with all 7 rows. 🙁

Please let me know what am I doing wrong…

Thanks,

Try to use FIND_IN_SET

SELECT * from users where (FIND_IN_SET(id,@Current)>0)
