I have an Access db (actually, about 60 of them) that has a table with
a field named Q#. This table gets read into a dataset. In the dataset,
the field is also called Q#. But when I try to update the db, an error
occurs because Access wants the field to be surrounded by brackets -
[Q#] - when written back. I know this is the problem, because if I
change the fieldname to QNum, it works fine.
Using the commandbuilder, or building the INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE
manually without brackets, the error is "Syntax error in INSERT
statement..." (or UPDATE, etc). When I build them manually with
brackets, the error is "No value given for one or more required
parameters..."
An example of the manual statement is: INSERT INTO QS (Q#, QText)
VALUES(?, ?)
I don't want to change the fieldname in Access because there are so
many db's, and the field is used in many queries, forms, etc. I want
to make all changes to the dataset and update all at once. It works
using cmd.ExecuteNonQ uery, but that's not what I want. Is there a way
to get this to work? Thanks.

There is a QuotePrefix and a QuoteSuffix propert, which is used by the
command builder to put the correct characters around table and column names
to make queries run.
Set those properties to [ and ], respectively.

Hi folks,
I have a problem with an MS Access SQL query which is being used in an
Access Report, and am wondering if anyone can help.
Basically, my query (shown below) gets some records from a couple of
tables in my database using INNER JOINS and the WHERE clause to
specify the required constraints. However, I also want to read two
fields from a *single* record from a table called 'Locations' and then
apply one of these field's values...

Can anybody help me with some Access 2000 code?
I don't do a lot of coding in Access & so every time I come back to do
something I pretty much have to relearn the syntax from scratch so this is
taking me hours. As with most occasional programmers its the commas, colons,
inverted commas, square brackets etc etc that cause the problem! (Not to
mention the nuances of using Do While, Do until, Case statements If

Rather than using the Access design view change the view to SQL. I am going to attempt to outline the general syntax used for SQL queries in Access.
Angle brackets <> are used in place of some syntax elements you must supply. The description of these elements will be in the contained in the angle brackets.
Square brackets are used to show which parts are optional.
Basic SELECT query
SELECT <field list>
FROM <table/query name(s)>

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.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
