SQL Tutorial will guide us now IN SQL keyword, there are two uses of the SQL IN keyword, and this SQL Tutorial section introduces the one that is related to the SQL WHERE clause. When used in this context, we know exactly the value of the returned values we want to see for at least one of the columns. The syntax for using the SQL IN keyword is as follows:

Syntax for SQL IN Keyword

SELECT "column_name"
FROM "table_name"
WHERE "column_name" IN ('value1', 'value2', ...)

The number of values in the parenthesis can be one or more as required, with each values separated by comma. Values can be numerical or characters or both. If there is only one value inside the parenthesis, this commend is equivalent to

WHERE "column_name" = 'value1'

For example, we may wish to select all records for the Employee Creston and Bobbi in the table of Employees.
Table: Employees

FirstName	LastName	Email	DOB	Phone
Austin	Hennery	austin.it@gamail.com	24/11/1978	446 102-2222
Creston	Narvon	narvon_crest@hotmail.com	22/04/1976	443 325-4545
Kate	Bladen	kbladen@usa.net	01/05/1980	326 503-3232
Angela	Julie	julieee@yahoo.co.uk	11/12/1977	326 323-8888
Bobbi	Ferguson	bobi123@kiwibox.com	10/02/1970	506 252-9875
Cute	Alfa	cafa@gmail.com	19/05/1972	506 272-4566
