Dear Experts,

I can not figure out what I am doing wrong.

I have two pages  WateringNote.cfm & NewWaterAction. The first page WateringNote.cfm allows the user to select a zone and to insert the date. The second page NewWaterAction inserts the information from the form into my Access database.   Now if I remove the date field from the two pages it works. Here is my code for WateringNote.cfm

<cfif IsDefined("URL.MM_logout") AND URL.MM_logout EQ "1">
  <cflock scope="Session" type="Exclusive" timeout="30" throwontimeout="no">
    <cfset Session.MM_Username="">
    <cfset Session.MM_UserAuthorization="">
  </cflock>
  <cfset MM_logoutRedirectPage="../Index.cfm">
  <cfif MM_logoutRedirectPage EQ "">
    <cfset MM_logoutRedirectPage=CGI.SCRIPT_NAME>
  </cfif>
  <cfset MM_logoutQuery=ListDeleteAt(CGI.QUERY_STRING,ListContainsNoCase(CGI.QUERY_STRING,"MM_logout=","&"),"&")>
  <cfif MM_logoutQuery NEQ "">
    <cfif Find("?",MM_logoutRedirectPage) EQ 0>
      <cfset MM_logoutRedirectPage=MM_logoutRedirectPage & "?" & MM_logoutQuery>
      <cfelse>
      <cfset MM_logoutRedirectPage=MM_logoutRedirectPage & "&" & MM_logoutQuery>
    </cfif>
  </cfif>
  <cflocation url="#MM_logoutRedirectPage#" addtoken="no">
</cfif>
<cflock scope="Session" type="ReadOnly" timeout="30" throwontimeout="no">
  <cfset MM_Username=Iif(IsDefined("Session.MM_Username"),"Session.MM_Username",DE(""))>
  <cfset MM_UserAuthorization=Iif(IsDefined("Session.MM_UserAuthorization"),"Session.MM_UserAuthorization",DE(""))>
</cflock>
<cfif MM_Username EQ "">
  <cfset MM_referer=CGI.SCRIPT_NAME>
  <cfif CGI.QUERY_STRING NEQ "">
    <cfset MM_referer=MM_referer & "?" & CGI.QUERY_STRING>
  </cfif>
  <cfset MM_failureURL="../Index.cfm?accessdenied=" & URLEncodedFormat(MM_referer)>
  <cflocation url="#MM_failureURL#" addtoken="no">
</cfif>
<cfparam name="URL.ID" default="1">
<cfset CurrentPage=GetFileFromPath(GetTemplatePath())>
<cfquery name="Recordset1" datasource="Garden">

Here is my code for NewWaterAction.cfm:

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<CFQUERY name="qUpload" datasource="Garden">
INSERT INTO Watering (Zone,
                                    Date)
      VALUES('#Form.ZoneList#',
               '#Form.Date1#')
</CFQUERY>  
<cflocation url="../Plants/PlantIndexMain.cfm">
<body>

</body>
</html>


What am I doing wrong?

One problem is that date is a reserved word.

Second problem would be if it was not in a valid format.

Use this :

<CFQUERY datasource="Garden">
INSERT INTO Watering (Zone,DateCol)
     VALUES(<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#Form.ZoneList#">,
             <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#DAteFormat(Form.Date1, 'MM/DD/YYYY)# #TimeFormat(Form.Date1, 'h:mm tt')#">)
</CFQUERY>

Thanks mrichmon,

That solved the problem. I will look up the reserved words so I do not make that mistake again.
