using paramater markers - masmithrpg - Dec-31-2019 I'm just beginning learning Python. I am connecting to DB2 I'm currently using version 3.6.9 I am trying to build excel spreadsheets with parameters passed into the Python3 script. I can successfully create the .xlsx file with no parms, but i'm struggling with the parms. So i have a script i'm calling with the following python3 actchgdt.py 49490 20190101 20190201 i can print the parms using print(sys.argv[1]) print(sys.argv[2]) print(sys.argv[3])Note: it seems odd to me that if i print(sys.argv[0]) i get the program name. now i set up my query query = ("select bhuact, bhubld, bhuutl, rvdes, bhuuse, bhuamt, bhutax " "from ublhu inner join urvc on bhurvc = rvrvc " "and bhuact = ? and bhubld between ? and ? " "and bhurvc <> ' ' " "order by bhubld, bhuact, bhurvc ",sys.argv[1],sys.argv[2],sys.argv[3] )all 3 of the fields with parameter markers are numeric in my database. This is the error i receive I've also tried coverting the parms to ints via int(sys.argv[1]) etchow should i be handling this? thanks do |
