well, it worked in sqlserver Insert fails in oledb

[Guest]

This insert does not work and i don't know why. I get the following error
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Operation must use an updateable query.
on the cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery()
I'm sure it's going to be simple
thanks

Function AddStone(ByVal thsStone)
Dim conAddStone As OleDbConnection
Dim strInsert As String
Dim cmdInsert As OleDbCommand
conAddStone = New
OleDbConnection("PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA Source=" & thsSitePath
& "db\damarstone.mdb")
strInsert = "Insert into typ (TypName) Values(@thsStone)"
cmdInsert = New OleDbCommand(strInsert, conAddStone)
'cmdInsert.Parameters.Add("@thsStone", thsStone)
conAddStone.Open()
cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery()
conAddStone.Close()
End Function

First make sure you have a Key on the table and that you can actually write
to the access db. Next, replace your params with ? and try it again.

Thank You for your reply.

Primary Key is typID as an auto Number, I replaced the param with a question
mark and i get the same problem. I even try:
Insert into typ (TypName) Values('Kris') What or who needs to be added to
the directory security for this file?
THanks
