Problem Note 39997: A database error can occur when you submit an SQL query with a LIBNAME statement that uses the MULTI_DATASRC_OPT=IN_CLAUSE option
 |  |  |  |  |
When you submit certain SQL queries in either SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Oracle or SAS/ACCESS® Interface to DB2, you can receive the following errors:
Error that occurs in Oracle:
ERROR: ORACLE prepare error: ORA–00933: SQL command not properly ended. SQL statement: SELECT (the selection statement follows)
Error that occurs in DB2:
DB2: ERROR: CLI open cursor error: [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2] SQL0104N An unexpected token ")" was found
The error occurs when you use the MULTI_DATASRC_OPT=IN_CLAUSE option in the LIBNAME statement that points to your database, as shown in the following example for Oracle:
libname ciwdb oracle path=oracle–path user=user–name password=password multi_datasrc_opt=in_clause;
To circumvent the problem, remove the MULTI_DATASRC_OPT=IN_CLAUSE option if you encounter this problem.
