Hi I want to change the table name of dash db, I am using a ? and parameters markers for the table name and the following error occurs An unexpected token "?" was found following "INSERT INTO ". Expected tokens may include: "\<insert\_target\>". SQLSTATE=42601, while it works when i change it to the table name. How can is solve this?

Furthermore i would also like to change the number of database inputs is this possible? Or are there other ways to connect multiple DB2 tables to node red? ![Capture4](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/2X/4/4081f33631471e9e936432efdb997a50ca53f94a.png)

That must be a contrib node that you have installed. Which one are you using?
