How to run SQL with a variable

JeffStrom
JeffStrom Posts: 2

I am trying to insert a record into our DB2 database and one of the columns contains a CLOB so to pick up the text file it is included as a variable (for example, ${data1-10||C:\workspace\DownloadFiles\EXPORT_DATA\dbvis-9421411203761954562.txt||TextData||noshow vl=file}$) which was exported from DBVisualizer. Currently, SOAtest throws a error as it interprets ${...} in the string as a variable; I would like it to be interpreted as literal text. Is there a way to insert records such as this one using the DBTool in SOAtest?

    In SOAtest, you can typically use '\' (backslash) to escape the dollar sign.
