Problem in Adding record in Database

[raaaz]

Hi dears,

I am adding a record in Access database using AddNew method of recordset. here is the code of the page ..

<%
        Set RsLibBuild = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Recordset")
        RsLibBuild.ActiveConnection = conn
        RsLibBuild.LockType = 2
        RsLibBuild.CursorType = 1
 
        RsLibBuild.Open "select * from tblbuilding where building_name='" & request.Form ("buildingname") & "' and area_name='" &  request.Form ("areaname") & "' and city_name='" & request.Form ("cityname") & "' and lib_status='1'"
 
            if RsLibBuild.EOF or RsLibBuild.BOF then
 
 
                RsLibBuild.AddNew
                RsLibBuild ("building_name") = Request.Form ("buildingname")
                RsLibBuild ("area_name") = Request.Form ("areaname")
                RsLibBuild ("city_name") = Request.Form ("cityname")
                RsLibBuild ("description") = Request.Form ("thecontent")
                RsLibBuild ("lib_status") = "1"
                RsLibBuild ("dated") = date
                RsLibBuild ("timed") = time
                RsLibBuild ("logby") = session("uname")
                RsLibBuild.Update                
 
                RsLibBuild.Close
                set RsLibBuild = nothing
 
                Msg = "1 Record Added .... "
                Response.Redirect "buildingsnap.asp?id="& request.Form("buildingname") &"&ConfMsg="&Msg
 
            else
 
                RsLibBuild.Close
                set RsLibBuild = nothing
 
                Msg = "Record already exists ....  "
                Response.Redirect "addlibbuilding.asp?ErrMsg="&Msg
 
 
            end if
 
 
%>

In ideal scenrio of database entry the page shud be redirected to buildingsnap.asp with Msg "1 Record Added..." but its happening reverse and data is being added in the database but after RsBuilding.update it goes to the else part and redirect to addlibbuilding.asp with Msg "Record Already Exist".

Record is being added but redirection of page is wrong. If i comment the RsBuilding.update line in above mentioned code then it works fine and redirect propery.

A quick response will be highly appreciated..

Thanx in adv.

You definitely wrote this code correctly. In any given time through this script it will not go through both the if and the else clause, so it must be going through this script twice from what you've told us. I would guess that perhaps buildingsnap.asp is redirecting back here, that would explain why you go into the else clause.
