"Insert into" query

[smus 0]

How to add some data to DB using "Insert into" query. I now use AddNew and Update with "Select from":

Dim adoCon, strCon, sco, SQLStatement
Set adoCon = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

SQLStatement = "SELECT * FROM table"
sco.Open SQLStatement, adoCon, 3, 3
sco.AddNew "string", info
sco.Update

But I need 'Insert into' to be executed

What is the sco object?

I use this...

<code>

l = "INSERT INTO TABLE (fldUserName,fieldwhatever) VALUES ('" & strUserName & "','" & strwhatever & "')"
con.Execute(l)

</code>

Cannot add even with addNew method: one of the variables is not added to the table, while others are inserted

sco.Open SQLStatement, adoCon, 3, 3

What do 3, 3 numbers mean in this expression?

You'll have to look up the documentation on the Open method, which will require you to figure out what kind of object sco is in the first place.  That was my first question.

I don't know, the code worked well with this object, but it looks like it is not needed in this context

SQLStatement, adoCon, 3, and 3 are the parameters that are being sent to the open method.  It is impossible to know what those are without figuring out what kind of object sco is and looking up the documentation for the open method to see what it expects.

You are right, it is difficult to define it without the context. I took this sample code from one of the tutorials and adjusted it for my simple needs. Now as we can see from the code below there are double object creations there. I am also not sure why there is the second RecordSet creation here:

Dim adoCon, strCon, sco, SQLStatement
Set adoCon = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
strCon = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\wwwroot\msaccess.mdb;"  'Set the connection string to the database
adoCon.connectionstring = strCon  'Set an active connection to the Connection object
adoCon.Open 'Initialise the main ADO recordset object
Set sco = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")

This code was initially previous to the code I copied at the beginning of this topic.

If sco is an ADO recordset object, you can look at the documentation for open here to figure out what the parameters are used for:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ado/reference/ado-api/open-method-ado-recordset
