Creating New Record in Database

[Striped Fish2]

I'm having an issue adding a record to a database. I double checked the fieldnames but they are all correct I'm thinking one of my fields could possibly be a keyword but I am not sure. Oh and experience is meant to be spelled wrong because I was lazy when I originally created the table and now have so many pages that use that field name that I don't feel like changing it. Here is my code.

<%set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"conn.open "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DragonKwest.mdb"name=Request.Querystring("name")race=Request.Querystring("race")gender=Request.Querystring("gender")ID=Request.cookies("ID")sql="INSERT INTO Characters ([Name],[Acc],Race,[Turns],[Gold],[lvl],Gender,[HP],Hitpoints,[num_of_kills],[Portrait],"sql=sql & "expierence,[XP],energypoints,[EP],att1,att2,[STR],[RAN],[H2H],[MGR],[DODGE],[PARRY],[ARMOUR],lsp,"sql=sql & "[equipaccessory],[Date_Registered],[last-logged],[equipbow],[equipsword])" sql=sql & " VALUES "sql=sql & "('" & name & "'," & ID & ",'" & race & "',50,200,1,'" & gender & "',25,25,0,'images/Portraits/elf-male.png',"sql=sql & "0,20,10,10,'Strong Shot','Broad Attack,18,93,60,38,83,55,0,'dragoth/tutorial.asp',"sql=sql & "'empty',#" & NOW() & "#,#" & NOW() & "#,'empty','empty')"on error resume nextconn.Execute sqlconn.close%>

Thanks in advance for any help you can give

Anyone have any solution?

This is the list of reserved words in Access:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/286335Why are you using "on error resume next"? You're basically telling the server to ignore errors, including error messages. If there's an error, don't you want to know about it?

[Striped Fish2]

Okay I looked through the list of reserved words and none of them matched what I had so I am good there. Then I removed "on error resume next". Now I have added an error if statement. Here is my code:

<%set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"conn.open "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DragonKwest.mdb"name=Request.Querystring("name")race=Request.Querystring("race")gender=Request.Querystring("gender")ID=Request.cookies("ID")sql="INSERT INTO Characters ([Name],[Acc],Race,[Turns],[Gold],[lvl],Gender,[HP],Hitpoints,[num_of_kills],[Portrait],"sql=sql & "expierence,[XP],energypoints,[EP],att1,att2,[STR],[RAN],[H2H],[MGR],[DODGE],[PARRY],[ARMOUR],lsp,"sql=sql & "[equipaccessory],[Date_Registered],[last-logged],[equipbow],[equipsword])" sql=sql & " VALUES "sql=sql & "('" & name & "'," & ID & ",'" & race & "',50,200,1,'" & gender & "',25,25,0,'images/Portraits/elf-male.png',"sql=sql & "0,20,10,10,'Strong Shot','Broad Attack,18,93,60,38,83,55,0,'dragoth/tutorial.asp',"sql=sql & "'empty',#" & NOW() & "#,#" & NOW() & "#,'empty','empty')"conn.execute sqlif err<>0 then  for each objErr in objConn.Errors  response.write("<p>")  response.write("Description: ")  response.write(objErr.Description & "<br />")  response.write("Help context: ")  response.write(objErr.HelpContext & "<br />")  response.write("Help file: ")  response.write(objErr.HelpFile & "<br />")  response.write("Native error: ")  response.write(objErr.NativeError & "<br />")  response.write("Error number: ")  response.write(objErr.Number & "<br />")  response.write("Error source: ")  response.write(objErr.Source & "<br />")  response.write("SQL state: ")  response.write(objErr.SQLState & "<br />")  response.write("</p>")  nextelse  Response.Write("Success!")end ifconn.close%>

The issue is that is now it returns nothing. And doesn't add any records to the database.

[justsomeguy]

What happens if you print that query out before running it?

[Striped Fish2]

Sorry I am kind of new to server side scripting. So I apologize if my question sounds silly, but how do you do that?

[Synook]

Same way as you print everything else out:

response.write(sql);

[Striped Fish2]

Oh that's what you mean. Okay I did that and it returns this:

INSERT INTO Characters ([Name],[Acc],Race,[Turns],[Gold],[lvl],Gender,[HP],Hitpoints,[num_of_kills],[Portrait],expierence,[XP],energypoints,[EP],att1,att2,[STR],[RAN],[H2H],[MGR],[DODGE],[PARRY],[ARMOUR],lsp,[equipaccessory],[Date_Registered],[last-logged],[equipbow],[equipsword]) VALUES ('TestCharacter','Elf',50,200,1,'Male',25,25,0,'images/Portraits/elf-male.png',0,20,10,10,'Strong Shot','Broad Attack,18,93,60,38,83,55,0,'dragoth/tutorial.asp','empty',#3/3/2011 4:30:37 PM#,#3/3/2011 4:30:37 PM#,'empty','empty')

I noticed there was an extra comma for some reason. I can't remove it because it isn't in the code

<%set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"conn.open "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DragonKwest.mdb"name=Request.Querystring("name")race=Request.Querystring("race")gender=Request.Querystring("gender")ID=Request.cookies("ID")sql="INSERT INTO Characters ([Name],[Acc],Race,[Turns],[Gold],[lvl],Gender,[HP],Hitpoints,[num_of_kills],[Portrait],"sql=sql & "expierence,[XP],energypoints,[EP],att1,att2,[STR],[RAN],[H2H],[MGR],[DODGE],[PARRY],[ARMOUR],lsp,"sql=sql & "[equipaccessory],[Date_Registered],[last-logged],[equipbow],[equipsword])" sql=sql & " VALUES "sql=sql & "('" & name & "'," & ID & ",'" & race & "',50,200,1,'" & gender & "',25,25,0,'images/Portraits/elf-male.png',"sql=sql & "0,20,10,10,'Strong Shot','Broad Attack,18,93,60,38,83,55,0,'dragoth/tutorial.asp',"sql=sql & "'empty',#" & NOW() & "#,#" & NOW() & "#,'empty','empty')"response.write sqlconn.Execute sqlif err<>0 then  for each objErr in objConn.Errors  response.write("<p>")  response.write("Description: ")  response.write(objErr.Description & "<br />")  response.write("Help context: ")  response.write(objErr.HelpContext & "<br />")  response.write("Help file: ")  response.write(objErr.HelpFile & "<br />")  response.write("Native error: ")  response.write(objErr.NativeError & "<br />")  response.write("Error number: ")  response.write(objErr.Number & "<br />")  response.write("Error source: ")  response.write(objErr.Source & "<br />")  response.write("SQL state: ")  response.write(objErr.SQLState & "<br />")  response.write("</p>")  nextelse  Response.Write("Success!")end ifconn.close%>

[justsomeguy]

I don't see an extra comma, but I see a missing quote after "Broad Attack".

[Striped Fish2]

Okay I figured out the comma issue. And thanks for telling me about the missing quote. I tried it now and it works.
