I think teh error is coming from this line

Coz when I replace the columnstr, fieldstr and teh table name to
something else, its working, I am not sure whats wrong. plase I need
help. thankyou.

hey curt, he is using the following as teh insert statemnt,
MM_editQuery = "insert into " & MM_editTable & " (" & MM_tableValues
& ") values (" & MM_dbValues & ")"

And he is getting the values from the code above. Now when i replace
the following with a different table and values, its working,

MM_editTable = "tblUsers"
MM_editRedirectUrl = "list_users.aspx"
MM_fieldsStr =
"firstname|value|lastname|value|userid|value|passw ord|value|position_name|v*alue|building|value|offi ce_number|value|department|value|email|value|user_ t*ype|value|user_access|value|viewallcase|value|ac tive|value"

MM_columnsStr =
"firstname|',none,''|lastname|',none,''|userid|',n one,''|password|',none,''*|position_name|',none,'' |building|',none,''|office_number|',none,''|depart m*ent|none,none,NULL|email|',none,''|user_type|non e,none,NULL|user_access|non*e,none,NULL|viewallcas e|',none,''|active|',none,''"
But when I use the above its giving me a syntax error in the insert
into statemtn, I am totally new to this area, hence need help. thanks
once again

I see where it's being done... just want to see the actual rendered result of
MM_editQuery
Copy/Paste it into query analyser... see what it says....

Hey Thanks for your reply, I am using the visual web developer with an
access database, teh query analyzer that ur mentioning is usually when
u use sql server i guess, i am not sure and probably wrong, could
please elaborate. thankyou

That's fine... Mostly its so that we can see the rendered sql string...
It's 10 times easier to see what's wrong when you have:
"insert into myTable...." rather then:
"insert into " & somevar & " .." & somethingElse & "..."
You get the idea...
