Syntax error - Macromedia ColdFusion

[middletree]

I posted a question or two on this recently, and posts have been helpful.
However, I have a new problem, and don't know what to do.

To recap. Simple page, this page is what gets
shown when the previous page, which contains a form, is submitted using
Post. First thing I want to do is insert a row into the database, called
Shape, and the table in question is called Personal.
First, the code:

strFirstName = Replace(Trim(Request.Form("FirstName")),"'","''")
strLastName = Replace(Trim(Request.Form("LastName")),"'","''")

strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Grace\Shape.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;"

Set objConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConnection.ConnectionString = strConnection
objConnection.Open

strSQL = "INSERT INTO Personal(FirstName,LastName) VALUES
('"&strFirstName&"','"&strLastName&"')"
Set rs = Server.CreateObject( "ADODB.Recordset" )
rs.Open strSQL, objConnection,

Set rs = objConnection.Execute( sql )
objConnection.Close

rs.Close
Set rs = Nothing
----------------------------------
I was getting another error, but the advice was to allow IUSR to have proper
permissions,. which I did. Now, i get this error:

Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A03EA)
Syntax error
/grace/shapethankyou.asp, line 152, column 30
rs.Open strSQL, objConnection,
-----------------------------^

The error is pointing right to the issue, and that is that you have a
trailing comma that shouldn't be there. But, really, you have a couple of
lines of code that shouldn't be there. Remove these lines from your code

Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs.Open, strSQL, objConnection, <--that comma, btw

Those lines are unnecessary. After removing them, delete this line
Set rs = objConnection.Execute( sql ) ''wouldn't this have been strSQL?

And replace it with
objConnection.Execute strSQL


There is no need to create an RS when doing an insert.

To be completely correct, I would recommend this:
objConnection.Execute strSQL,,129

Makes sense when you say it.

thanks

I am a newbie. What EXACTLY do these error messages mean so I can know where
to start to fix the problem? 'Syntax error (missing operator) in query
expression...' '....OWNERACCESS OPTION' And I have a general question. Why
does it take the MM site so long to load? Maizie

Can't tell what the problem is without seeing any of the offending code.

Two tables, one with company names and contacts related to another table with
states. They are both part of a master page that lists internships with links
to PDFs with more info and links to company which drills down to a detail page.
Everything on the page works except the drilldown to the company detail. Hope
it makes sense. SELECT internships.ID, internships.company,
internships.contact_name, internships.contact_title, internships.contact_phone,
internships.contact_fax, internships.contact_email,
internships.contact_address, internships.contact_city, internships.contact_zip,
internships.contact_web, contact_state.contact_state_ID,
contact_state.contact_state 21 : FROM internships, contact_state 22 : WHERE ID
= #URL.recordID# 23 : AND internships.contact_state_ID =
contact_state.contact_state_ID 24 : ORDER BY internships.company

So sorry for the bother. I just found the problem. Another newbie mistake. I apologize for taking your time.

I am attempting to draw records based on street name and number information but
cannot seem to get the syntax of the query correct. The error is; ODBC Error
Code = 37000 (Syntax error or access violation) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft
Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression
'Street_Number = 1000 and StreetNm = CENTRE LINE'. The error occurred while
processing an element with a general identifier of (CFQUERY), occupying
doent position (28:2) to (28:66). The query is; <cfquery
name='ClientQuery' datasource='CountyGIS' dbtype='odbc'> SELECT * FROM
Recycle Where Street_Number = #Street_Number# and StreetNm = #StreetNm#
</cfquery> The StreetNm (street name) is drawn from the DB, passed along to
the next page where the user manually puts in their Street_Number (street
number) which then should return matching record(s) from the DB. The error
shows the correct street name and number...but that is as far as it goes.
Thanks in advance!

Since #StreetNm# is text, it should be enclosed within single quotes as in and
StreetNm = '#StreetNm#'. Also, if Street_Number is also a text/char/varchar
column in the database, #Street_Number# would also be enclosed in quotes as
well.

Hi guys..

When I try and run the following code it says that there is a missing
operator..

SELECT
curr.portfolio_code,
curr.date,
(curr.gross_index-mo1.gross_index)/mo1.gross_index AS 1MONTH_RETURN,
(curr.gross_index-mo1.gross_index)/mo1.gross_index AS 3MONTH_RETURN
FROM portfolio_performance AS curr
LEFT OUTER JOIN portfolio_performance AS mo1
ON curr.date =
dateserial(year(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date),
MONTH([mo1].date)+2, 1))),
month(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date), MONTH([mo1].date)+2,
1))),day(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date),MONTH([mo1].date)+2,
1))))
LEFT OUTER JOIN portfolio_performance AS mo3
ON curr.date =
dateserial(year(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo3].date),
MONTH([mo3].date)+4, 1))),
month(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo3].date), MONTH([mo3].date)+4,
1))),day(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo3].date),MONTH([mo3].date)+4,
1))))
;

However, when I run the same code, minus the second left outer join it
works perfectly..

SELECT
curr.portfolio_code,
curr.date,
(curr.gross_index-mo1.gross_index)/mo1.gross_index AS 1MONTH_RETURN
FROM portfolio_performance AS curr
LEFT OUTER JOIN portfolio_performance AS mo1
ON curr.date =
dateserial(year(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date),
MONTH([mo1].date)+2, 1))),
month(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date), MONTH([mo1].date)+2,
1))),day(dateadd('d',-1,dateserial(Year([mo1].date),MONTH([mo1].date)+2,
1))));

Any help would be appreciated.. im sure its only something minor!
