Maybe anybody knows how many?
Anyway: My exact problem is "in words" quite easy:
col1 | col2
------------123 | 958143 | 394124 | 345324 | 345346 | 541743 | 144346 | 986
Imagine, this table is really big (millions records).
Now, I want to retrieve for all records in col A OR col B where either
123, 124, 144, 541 (and a view thousands more ...) fits.
As far as I understud you:
SELECT * FROM table
WHERE col1 IN (123,124,144,541,...)
OR col2 IN (123,124,144,541,...);
Cheers, Markus
