Re: Using Array Values in Insert Query ?






Thats really nice of you, all of you given me  very beneficial solutions. 
I
really appreciate.

One thing I would like to clarify by myself that its not necessary that I
have to Insert 25 records all the time, it could be even 1 or 2 records, 
so
how can I check this and put that number in Insert Block Statement.

For example: say I have just 2 records to be inserted out of 25 and
remaining 23 array elements are not used, will Insert Query detect this
automatically or I have to put number of rows to be inserted.

Best Regards,
