Hi, Jean-Marc,

Thanks for that thought. I have already tried it.

When there are double or single quotes around the formal parameter, I  
have no error message, but the parameter is not passed. It is as if an  
empty string is passed, based on what is produced in the resulting  
output.

(BTW: the user_id is an integer in the database, and when I run it  
with quotes around the formal parameter, it returns results for  
used_id = 0, no matter what is passed in as the actual parameter.)
