Thank you for all answers. I will try to find a new way to do that.
However, the problem is that I'm using a report generator and I
don't have the source and full control on it.

So, it's for this reason I need to use an IN clause with the report
generator to filter only on specific products. Also, another problem
is since users don't necessary have access to all products (it
depends on their security level) it complicate things.

Thanks again for all answers.
Best regards
