I'm trying to pass some parms into my sql passthru for a standard report, The column in question is alpha numeric (plant number) if I put '6' in the parm it works just fine but if I put 6 then I get an error invalid number.
Know do a put quotes around my parms?

code follows

APP PATH MFGVIS
ENGINE SQLORA SET DEFAULT_CONNECTION mfgvis
SQL SQLORA PREPARE SQLOUT FOR
with
cal as (
select to_date('01/01/1900','mm/dd/yyyy') as end_paywk from dual
union
(select end_paywk from
(select distinct c.end_paywk as end_paywk from visuser.PCC_CALENDAR C
where c.calendar_date >= trunc(sysdate-150)
order by c.end_paywk
)
where rownum < &Enter_No_Of_Wks)
),
part as (
select e.en_part_id , pep.yield_6_month_n as yield_n
from visuser.en_part e, visuser.commodity c, visuser.pcc_en_part pep
where e.commodity_id = c.commodity_id
and (c.commodity_x between '100' and '199' or substr(c.commodity_x,1,1) =6)
and e.en_part_id = pep.en_part_id (+)
and pep.plant_c = &Enter_Plant_No
),

substr(c.commodity_x,1,1) =6

You can't compare a substring to a number.

If the column is alphanumeric then you need the quotes as you saw. Just because it is a numeral in the field, you can't leave them off.
