using array as execute parameter in dbapi

Is it possible to send an array as a parameter for an execute method in
dbapi2 module?
I'm using adodbapi and try to perfrom the following SQL query:
select * from item where storeid in ('01', '02')

When I use direct string formating it works:

a=('01','02')
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in %s' % a.__repr__())

but trying to use parameter does not work:

cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in ?', a)
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in ?', (a,))
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in ?', ([a],)

and even this does not work:
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in ?', a.__repr__())
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in ?',
(a.__repr__(),))

surprisingly, this get executed be returns wrong result:
cur.execute('select * from item where storeid in (\'?\'),
"','".join(a))
I guess the question mark gets escaped by the quotes the parameter is
ignored.

Regards,

Magdy Salam
