Hai,to every one

here is my question

I have designed the coding to collect the feedback report from the user,
which includes Name of the user, staffno and comments.But when I click on
submit button I am getting the following error

Error Type:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E14)
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.
/feedbackform/formreport.asp, line 32


<html>
<% @LANGUAGE="VBScript" %>

' Declaring variables
Dim username, userstaffno, usercomments, data_source,
con, sql_insert

' A Function to check if some field entered by user is
empty
Function ChkString(string)
If string = "" Then string = " "
ChkString = Replace(string, "'", "''")
End Function

' Receiving values from Form
username = ChkString(Request.Form("username"))
userstaffno = ChkString(Request.Form("userstaffno"))
usercomments = ChkString(Request.Form("usercomments"))


data_source = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data
Source=" &_
Server.MapPath("formreport.mdb")

sql_insert = "insert into formreport
(username,userstaffno,usercomments)"
sql_insert = sql_insert & " values (' " &_
Request.Form("username") & " ' , ' " & _
Request.Form("userstaffno") & " ' , ' " &_
Request.Form("usercomments") & " ' , " & " )"

' Creating Connection Object and opening the database
Set con = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
con.Open data_source
con.Execute sql_insert

' Done. Close the connection
con.Close
Set con = Nothing
Set sql_insert = Nothing
Response.Write "All records were successfully entered
into the database."
%>
</body>
</html>

Sanju,

here is the syntax for the sql insert

sql_insert = "insert into formreport ( username, userstaffno,
usercomments ) " & _
"values ( """ & Request.Form("username") & """, """ &
Request.Form("userstaffno") & """, """ & Request.Form("usercomments") & """"

Paste it into notepad to see it without the line wraps.

I am assuming that formreport is the name of the table.
Request.Form("username"), userstaffno and usercomments are string variables
from controls on the form.
