I am trying to update a record but I keep receiving an error, "Data type mismatch in criteria expression." Here is the code: - DoCmd.RunSQL ("Update Caller2 SET Ext = '" & Me!txtExt & "' where CallerID ='" & GlobalCID & "'")
It has something to do with the where clause. The code "worked" when I forgot to include it. I need to be able to update a bunch of fields, but broke them down one by one to debug, and reached the conclusion it is the where clause. GlobalCID is being assigned properly. The only thing I can think of is CallerID is an autonumber, but I don;t know.
Any help??

If CallerID is a number then you have to leave off those single quotes you're using to enclose it. The single quotes tell the system that it's a string and will treat it as such.
Such a green mistake. Thanks, and sorry for the hassle.

It's not a problem at all. Good luck.

I want to be able to generate SQL statements that will go through a list of
data, effectively row by row, enquire on the database if this exists in the

Logically then, I would like to SELECT * FROM <TABLE>

Well, here is some weirdness. First, I noticed that I
have 2 Set keywords (silly me). so I removed the

the Where clause, and now it works perfectly. Is this
correct? Or am I just getting lucky? I'm not completely

Hello,
I have 2 tables with a relationship set up in the dataset with vb

I will ask the question first then fumble thru trying to explain myself so i
dont waste too much of your time.
Question / Statement - Every mdb table needs a PrimaryKey ( or maybe an
index - i havnt tested the index yet ) so you
can use an .UPDATE( dataTable ) on the data adapter. Otherwise you will
get an exception error.
Is this statement true?

Hello PHP programmers.
I had a brilliant idea on one of my pages that selects some data from
my mysql database.
I first set the page up to display some info and an image, just one
item, with a row of data, etc.
then I thought it would be nice to do a select, and perhaps an update
(the title of the image) on the same page.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
