    Posted: 28 April 2003 at 7:43am

I get the following error when i perform the insert into operation below:

Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.

The code I use is as follows:

sql = "INSERT INTO Phrases_in_Dictations(Test_ID, Phrase_ID, Number) VALUES (8, 105, 1)"
SET rs = Conn.Execute(sql)
SET rs = Nothing

What's wrong with my sql-statement? I've been staring at it for about 45 minutes and don't see it.

Why oh why do people use reserved words as column names... just kidding. the word number is reserved in access so unless you cannot change the table anymore do the following:
INSERT INTO Phrases_in_Dictations(Test_ID, Phrase_ID, [Number]) VALUES (8, 105, 1)
As a tip, for database names, column names etc. try to never use dicitionary words. You never know what words might be reserved in an upcoming version. What I do a lot is have a datatype prefix or suffix e.g.   iID  and I would know it is an integer   cName  I know it is a char field....

OK, sorry, didn't quite notice that....I'll change the names immediately.

Thanx again for finding the error!
