Hi Steve

When I said it shows *SQL, I meant that your statement was using SQL naming - lib.file instead of lib/file. There is an attribute of the connection that you can use to set which naming convention to use - I forget what the default is. Your code does explicitly set the naming convention.

As to the statement, here is what it is after resolving variables and all

INSERT INTO mylib.myfile (NumField) VALUES ('123456')

If NumField in myfile is numeric, then this will not work, because you are putting a character string into a numeric field. Get rid of both apostrophes. In particular, change

SQLINSERT=SQLINSERT &"'" &NumField &"')"

to

SQLINSERT=SQLINSERT &NumField &")"

Hi Vern

It may or may not be rocket science, and in all probability it will turn out to be something very simple but I do know it is frustrating as hell. We drag the data from the iSeries fine but when we go to send it back is when it goes wrong. The code I sent in my original message is where the error occurs. Apparently there is nothing in ASP where you can define what a field should be, or so I am told.

SQLINSERT="INSERT INTO mylib.myfile (NumField)"
SQLINSERT=SQLINSERT & " VALUES ("
SQLINSERT=SQLINSERT &"'" &NumField &"')"
set connupdate = server.createobject("ADODB.Connection")
connupdate.open "Provider=IBMDA400;Data Source=xxx.xxx.xxx.x;", "ABC", "ABC"
connupdate.execute(SQLINSERT)
connupdate.close

As far as the naming convention goes, if it shows *SQL should it not be *SQL? Seems a little strange to me that you can set a value to one thing but it displays something totally different.

I know next to nothing about ASP, my friend who does ASP is away until Monday, so unfortunately I cannot get into the source. I will get the details from him when he gets back.

Steve

This is not rocket science - there is something very simple that is
not right. Please leave details - what is the final ASP code that
gave you the SQL0104 message?

We do numerics all the time - ODBC and OLEDB have done it forever -
you are using the IBMDA400 provider - it works - no problems.

What naming convention are you using - it shows *SQL but maybe it is
set to *SYS.

Can you debug the ASP code - I know it is similar to VB, but I've
never worked in it myself. If so, verify what the full SELECT
statement looks like - something is wrong with it.

So help us help you.
