How to Write data to SQL Server?

[JG]

I am converting an Access Database to an SQL Server
database

I have the connection working and am able to delete and
loop through and read records correctly using Set
Rst_Labels
Set RST_LABELS = dbs.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM
dbo_labels;", dbOpenDynaset, dbSQLPassThrough)

With RST_LABELS
Loop etc.
..movefirst
..movenext etc

However I now wish to add records to this SQL table(
importing data from a Text file and saving to an SQL Table)

Code is as below which worked for an Access Table. How or
Can I get this to work with an SQL Table or do I have to
rewrite completely..

Set RST_Labels = db.OpenRecordset("dbo.LABELS",
DBOPENTABLE)

This command produces an error message.

With RST_Labels
.AddNew
![HO] = HO
etc.
.Update
End With
TIA
JG

You need quotes around a string (Text) value. E.g.:

..AddNew
!HO = 'HO'
..Update

If HO is the name of a control on a form you'd do this:

..AddNew
!HO = Me!HO
..Update

If Me!HO is NULL & the column [HO] is defined as a NOT NULL column then
you'll get an error. Therefore, you'll have to check if Me!HO is NULL
before attempting to add it's value to the column. E.g.:

..AddNew
If Not IsNull(Me!HO) Then !HO = Me!HO
.... etc. ...
..Update

Thanks for that but my problem is that I cannot open a
Table to write to . The Openrecordset syntax now fails.
But I take from your reply, that the rest of the code
should work in the same way which is good, because I did
not want to start writing SQL INSERT etc unless there is
no alternative.

The answer was in Knowledgebase Article 161252
Set GUS_Labels = ConLabels.OpenRecordset("LABELS",
dbOpenDynamic, 0, dbOptimistic)

Thanks to all for your help
