I figured that. It is not supported in Access or SQL server - wasn't sure about Oracle. Never thought about using a Union statement in an append query - Thanks!

I am trying to insert multiple rows into a table using Oracle SQLdeveloper but it didn't work in any way.. I know that in mysql I could insert numerous records without these extra tags 'SELECT FROM DUAL UNION'.. but here it doesn't work the same..
INSERT all
INTO customer(custid, firstname, lastname, houseno, street, city, postcode, telnum, email, county)
VALUES (100012, 'Sergio', 'Fish', '34', 'Johny Walker Av', 'Kingston', 'K2 5OP', '02080987456', 'walkerJohn@bt.com', 'surrey')
INTO CUSTOMER(100013, 'Georg', 'Hanz', '12', 'Fishmongers Lane', 'Brighton', 'B2 0YU', '01940123456', 'hanzie@talktalk.co.uk', 'Kent')
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL;
try this
insert into ...
(
select ... from dual
union
select ... from dual
)
or even this
insert into ...
select * from
(
select ... from dual
union
select ... from dual
) x
insert into ...
(
select ... from dual
union
select ... from dual
)
or even this
insert into ...
select * from
(
select ... from dual
union
select ... from dual
) x

to change the query to:
INSERT INTO customer(custid, firstname, lastname, houseno, street, city, postcode, telnum, email, county) VALUES (100012, 'Sergio', 'Fish', '34', 'Johny Walker Av', 'Kingston', 'K2 5OP', '02080987456', 'walkerJohn@bt.com', 'surrey');
Does the query have carriage returns or did posting to EE add those?
