Question

I have the following named scope:

named_scope :report_search, lambda { |search|
  {
    :conditions => ["rep_name like ? or rep_id like ? or rep_symbol like ? or rep_issue like ?", search]
  }
}

When i run it, I get the error message:

wrong number of bind variables

I would appreciate it if somebody could help me figure out wht’s wrong with the code.

Many thanks

You need one variable for each question mark in your bind statement. If they’re all the same, you need to repeat them multiple times:

named_scope :report_search, lambda { |search|
  {
    :conditions => ["rep_name like ? or rep_id like ? or rep_symbol like ? or rep_issue like ?", search, search, search, search]
  }
}
