Question

Can anyone help with my syntax error?

Asked by: NorthDorsetWeb

I am creating an insert statement from a dynamic recordset on Dreamweaver.   I want to insert multiple rows in one table but they  may vary depending upon how many are in the original recordset.  I am getting the following error:

"Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement".

Help with this would be most appreciated.

The Access database table called tbl_CurrentStatus contains:
StatusID
Organisation
StatusRef
MemberID
TimeStamp ( the default value of this is now() )  

Code for the Insert Statement - code for entry page below:
 
<%
Dim i 
Dim cInsert
 
set cInsert = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
cInsert.ActiveConnection = MM_conDistrictNurses_STRING
For i = 0 to varCount
currentOrg = "OrgID" & i
currentStatus = "StatusType" & i
currentMember = "MemberID" & i
If Request("'" & currentOrg & "'") + Request("'" & currentStatus & "'") + Request("'" & currentMember & "'") <>"" Then
'Insert the current status
cInsert.CommandText="INSERT INTO tbl_CurrentStatus (Organsation, StatusRef, MemberID) VALUES ("& Request("'" & currentOrg& "'") & ", " & Request("'" & currentStatus& "'") & ", " & Request("'" & currentMember & "'") &")"
cInsert.CommandType = 1
cInsert.CommandTimeout = 0
cInsert.Prepared = True
cInsert.Execute()
End if
Next 
%>
 
Entry page:
 
<form name="Form" method="post" action="thankyou.asp">
<table width="400" border="0" align="center">        
<%   dim varCount 
         varCount = 0 %>
<%   While ((Repeat1__numRows <> 0) AND (NOT rsGetService.EOF)) %>
<tr>
<td width="121">
<input name="<%Response.Write "OrgID" & varCount %>" type="hidden" id="<%Response.Write "OrgID" & varCount %>" value="<%=(rsGetService.Fields.Item("ID").Value)%>">
</td>
<td width="187"><input name="<%Response.Write "MemberID" & varCount %>" type="hidden" id="<%Response.Write "MemberID" & varCount %>" value="<%=(rsGetService.Fields.Item("Member").Value)%>">
<%=(rsGetService.Fields.Item("Prescriber_Name").Value)%></td>
<td width="18">
<select name="<%Response.Write "StatusType" & varCount %>" id="<%Response.Write "StatusType" & varCount %>">
<%
While (NOT rsStatustype.EOF)
%>
<option value="<%=(rsStatustype.Fields.Item("StatusTypeID").Value)%>"><%=(rsStatustype.Fields.Item("CurrentStatus").Value)%></option>
<%
  rsStatustype.MoveNext()
Wend
If (rsStatustype.CursorType > 0) Then
  rsStatustype.MoveFirst
Else
rsStatustype.Requery
End If
%> </select>
            </td>
            <td width="18">&nbsp;</td>
            <td width="22">&nbsp;</td>
          </tr>
          
<% 
varCount = varCount + 1
%>
<% 
  Repeat1__index=Repeat1__index+1
  Repeat1__numRows=Repeat1__numRows-1
  rsGetService.MoveNext()
Wend

<div align="center">

<input type="submit" name="Insert" id="Insert" value="Insert">
</div>

The first thing that pops out to me is there might be a typo.  I think you are trying to use the word 'Organization' instead of 'Organsation', but I might be wrong.

 

by: NorthDorsetWebPosted on 2009-10-27 at 08:14:40ID: 25673303

Ahhh yes - you are correct - that helps as I am posting one record to the database now.

Is there anything else you can see that will prevent it looping?

 

by: capricorn1Posted on 2009-10-27 at 08:15:03ID: 25673305

good catch Torrwin, but
from the posting above, the field name is  { Organisation }

 

by: Helen_FeddemaPosted on 2009-10-27 at 08:15:22ID: 25673307

"Organsation" doesn't sound right to me, either.  Check the spelling of that field name.  Also, this is not Access VBA code.  I don't know what kind of code it is, but you may need to cross-post in the relevant section.

 

by: cactus_dataPosted on 2009-10-27 at 08:23:27ID: 25673404

It is ASP.

Lots of other typos like currentStatus&
And varCount has no value.

I have actually noticed that when I response write the values = Im not getting anything for the value of VarCount so as far as I can see its stopping at one.

I have requested the value now  

varCountNumber  = Request(VarCount)

and set the index

For i = - to varCountNumber

But Im still not getting a value writing to the page?

 

by: NorthDorsetWebPosted on 2009-10-27 at 08:25:11ID: 25673434

sorry -

for i = 0 to varCountNumber

not - to varCountNumber

 

by: NorthDorsetWebPosted on 2009-10-27 at 09:02:31ID: 25674004

Thank you all for your help so far!

I have got it to the stage that if I change the for i = 0 to 2     (currently testing with three records) -  all records save to the database.

Can anyone see why the varCount doesnt work?

It is dimensioned before the loop starts:
<%  dim varCount
        varCount = 0 %>

and increments before the loop finishes:
<%
varCount = varCount + 1
 %>

Its held in currently an input field within the table below the loop (will be hidden eventually) and displays correctly on the page:

<input name="varCount" type="input" id="varCount" value="<%=Response.write(varCount)%>">

It is requested on the following page:

varCountNumber = CLng(Request(varCount))

I converted to a int just in case it is saving as a string and I use it as follows:

For i = 0 to varCountNumber


is still get varCountNumber = 0 when I response.write it.

 

by: NorthDorsetWebPosted on 2009-10-27 at 09:30:32ID: 25674395

Thank you for your help - problem solved - I wasnt requesting the form value for varCount.
