I’m new to python and have hit a problem with an SQL query I’m trying to perform.
I am creating an SQL SELECT statement that is populated with values from an array as follows:
ret = conn.execute('SELECT * FROM TestTable WHERE a = ? b = ? c = ?', *values)
This works ok where I have real values in the values array. However in some cases an individual entry in values may be set to None. The query then fails because the “= NULL” test does not work since the test should be IS NULL.
Is there an easy way around this?
If you are using SQL Server then as long as you set ANSI_NULLS off for the session ‘= null’ comparison will work.
SET ANSI_NULLS
