The way to avoid too many parameters is not to fiddle and fidget until it accepts too many parameters, as too many parameters will be too many parameters no matter how you cut it. The way to avoid too many parameters is to not use too many parameters.

Perhaps you can avoid reading the file into a shell variable at all:

Code:
( printf "%s" "select name from table_name where cardnum in ('"
        cat parameters.txt
        printf "%s\n" "')" ) | databasecommand

jls

JLS(8)							    BSD System Manager's Manual 						    JLS(8)

NAME

     jls -- list jails

SYNOPSIS

     jls [-dhNnqsv] [-j jail] [parameter ...]

DESCRIPTION

     The jls utility lists all active jails, or the specified jail.  Each jail is represented by one row which contains space-separated values of
     the listed parameters, including the pseudo-parameter all which will show all available jail parameters.  A list of available parameters can
     be retrieved via ``sysctl -d security.jail.param''.  See jail(8) for a description of some core parameters.

     If no parameters or any of the options -hns are given, the following four columns will be printed: jail identifier (jid), IP address
     (ip4.addr), hostname (host.hostname), and path (path).

     The following options are available:

     -d      List dying as well as active jails.

     -h      Print a header line containing the parameters listed.  If no parameters are given on the command line, all is assumed.

     -N      In the standard display mode, print each jail's name instead of its numeric ID.  If the jail does not have a name, the numeric ID is
	     printed instead.

     -n      Print parameters in ``name=value'' format, where each parameter is preceded by its name.  If no parameters are given on the command
	     line, all is assumed.

     -q      Put quotes around parameters if they contain spaces or quotes, or are the empty string.

     -s      Print parameters suitable for passing to jail(8), skipping read-only and unused parameters.  Implies -nq.

     -v      Print a multiple-line summary per jail, with the following parameters: jail identifier (jid), hostname (host.hostname), path (path),
	     jail name (name), jail state (dying), cpuset ID (cpuset), IP address(es) (ip4.addr and ip6.addr).

     -j jail
	     The jid or name of the jail to list.  Without this option, all active jails will be listed.

HISTORY

     The jls utility was added in FreeBSD 5.1.	Extensible jail parameters were introduced in FreeBSD 8.0.
