    :cool: I have tried inserting a simple first and last name into a access table via two textboxes using this code below:

    <%@ Page Language="VB"%>
    <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data"%>
    <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.OleDb"%>


    <script runat="server">

    sub Button1_Click (Sender as Object, e as EventArgs)
    dim myConnection as new OleDbConnection ("Provider = " & "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source = " & Server.MapPath("\aspnet\NeilStansfield\aspdatabase.mdb"))
    Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO regtest (firstname, password) VALUES('" & regtestname.Text & "','" & regtestpass.Text & "')")

    myConnection.Open()
    cmd.Connection = myConnection
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
    myConnection.Close()



    end sub
    </SCRIPT>



    I keep getting the error returned for line 14(cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()) saying there is a syntax error in my insert statement but i cannot see how i think ihave miised a command or myCommand line

    if anyone can help it would be appreciated i am at university and my final year project needs to be in by Mayday ty.

    Change your code to use parameters to avoid sql injection.

    Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO regtest (firstname, password) VALUES(?,?)")
    cmd.Parameters.Add("FirstName", regtestname.Text)
    cmd.Parameters.Add("Password",
    regtestpass.Text)
    cmd.Connection = myConnection
    myConnection.Open()
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
    myConnection.Close()

    I'm fairly sure you need to use ? for parameters in oledb but do a search for ms access parameter querys if you need more info.

    You may also want to put your connection string in the web.config file.
