You shouldn't ever build a string and then pass it as a sql statement into sql server. It poses huge security risks (depending on your database) aka. sql injection.

Instead of doing this:
MySQL_str="select * from some_file where boxid="alltrim(str(xxx))
sqlexec(gnHandle,MySQL_str,"curReturn")

do this:
xxx='38107'
SQLEXEC(gnConnHandle, 'SELECT * FROM box where box_id=&xxx')
