Microsoft Access form submission - ms-access

I'm new to Access and have a few questions. To start off, after watching some tutorials and researching, I keep getting a Syntax error on my submission button. I am just trying to write to the database from the form. Here is my error.
Private Sub btn_Add_Click()
CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO IPA_Raw_Data(Date, Auditor) " _
" VALUES(" & Me.txt_Date & ",'" & Me.txt_Name & "')"
btn_Clear_Click
End Sub
I'm sure it's something simple. Just new to this. Thanks!

Date is a reserved word in SQL, and your syntax needs a brush-up. So:
Private Sub btn_Add_Click()
CurrentDb.Execute _
"INSERT INTO IPA_Raw_Data([Date], Auditor) " & _
"VALUES (#" & Format(Me!txt_Date.Value, "yyyy\/mm\/dd") & "#,'" & Me!txt_Name.Value & "')"
End Sub

ms access error 3061 - To Few Parameters

I'm very new to coding and ms acess, so I really need your help.
I'm trying to get a button to update some data in a table.
I used this code but I keep getting this 3061 error, and i'm going crazy :( help!
Private Sub Concluido_Click() 'Add
CurrentDb.Execute "UPDATE OFP_tempos " & _
" SET Id=" & Me.txtId & _
", Tempo_total='" & Me.txtTotal & "'" & _
", Fim='" & Me.txtHora & "'" & _
" WHERE OFP_tempos=" & Me.txtId.Tag
' disable button edit
Me.Concluido.Enabled = False
End Sub
OK so I found the error at last!
(Now I feel stupid for asking -.-')
On the last line I had the name of the table OFP_tempos instead of the ID -.-'

syntax error in INSERT INTO statement, checked with space already

I was trying to run this following SQL through vba, however, it keeps telling there is a syntax error in INSERT INTO statement. Can anyone help with it? Thanks a lot.
Dim strTemp2 As String
strTemp2 = "INSERT INTO tblPartDocs(idsPartDocID, idsScanID, intPartNum, strShopOrder/LotBatchID, dtmDateOfWork) VALUES " _
& "('" & Me.tboScanID & "','" & Me.tboScanID & "','" & Me.tboPartNumber & "','" & Me.tboShop & "','" & Me.tboDateOfWork & "');"
DoCmd.RunSQL strTemp2
I think problem is here
"strShopOrder/LotBatchI"
You are require to provide comma instead of forward slash

Inssert Statment, Values not Coded correctly

Complete VBA newb...trying to enter some simple data into a simple table from an access form.
I used a youtube video and attempted to modify the code for my use, however I can get seem to get passed errors.
Here is the code mapped to the button that I am using to enter in the data
Private Sub Command0_Click()
'add data to table
CurrentDb.Execute "INSERT INTO EmpLunchTBL (FullName, ManName, TuesOrder, ThursOrder, PayType)" & _
"VALUES (" ' & Me.txtName & ",'" & Me.txtMS & "','" & Me.cboTues & "','" & Me.cboThurs & "','" & Me.cboPaytype & "')"
End Sub
Pretty Straight forward, I know the issue lies somewhere within my values area...but again total newb...
Thank you!
I think the "VALUES (" ' is the problem. Try this:
Private Sub Command0_Click()
'add data to table
Debug.Print "INSERT INTO EmpLunchTBL (FullName, ManName, TuesOrder, ThursOrder, PayType)" & _
"VALUES ('" & Me.txtName & "','" & Me.txtMS & "','" & Me.cboTues & "','" & Me.cboThurs & "','" & Me.cboPaytype & "')"
End Sub
Edit: Another single quote was missing.

What does "Too few parameters. Expected 1." on MS Access mean?

I'm trying to update records in my form. It's a restaurant reservation system. Given the Table #, the form can let the user input the Customer ID of the person reserving, the reservation time and date. But when I click on the "update" button in my form, a text box will pop up with this:
And whatever I put in it, the runtime error "too few parameters. expected 1." pops up. Sometimes a "Reserved Error" will pop up. Could someone help me? It's the last step before I could finally finish this project.
This is my code for updating the record:
Private Sub Command8_Click()
On Error GoTo errHandling
Dim strSQL As String
strSQL = "UPDATE tblReserve SET CustomerID = " & """" & Me.txtCustID & """" & _
", ResDate = " & """" & Me.txtResDate & """" & ", ResTime = " & """" & Me.txtTime & """" & " WHERE TableNum =" & Me.TableNum
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
DoCmd.SetWarnings True
CurrentDb.Execute strSQL, dbFailOnError
DoCmd.Close
Exit Sub
errHandling:
MsgBox Err.Description
End Sub
Screenshot of VBA editor with Debug.Print strSQL
As revealed in our [chat][1], the essence of the problem was that [TableNum] is a text field and therefore its value had to be enclosed in quotes:
"... WHERE TableNum = '" & Me.TableNum & "'"
[1]: https://chat.stackoverflow.com/rooms/42746/discussion-between-nutellafella-and-gord-thompson)
Try something like this
strSQL = "UPDATE tblReserve SET CustomerID = " & Me.txtCustID & _
", ResDate = " & "'" & Me.txtResDate & "'" & ", ResTime = " & "'" & Me.txtTime & "'" & " WHERE TableNum =" & Me.TableNum
I am not sure why you have 2 sets of double quotes inside double quotes, I think what you were looking for is single quotes :)
However, there are much better ways to format sql than this. Also this seems like homework, so study up!

VB.net update query is not giving errors and not updating my sql database

Dim conntps As MySqlConnection
Dim myconnstringtps As String
conntps = New MySqlConnection()
Dim mycommand As New MySqlCommand
Dim Updatepayments As String = "update payments set payments.payorname='" & _
epayorname.Text & "', payments.cardnumber='" & eccnumber.Text & _
"', payments.bankname='" & ebankname.Text & "', payments.checkaccountnumber='" & _
eaccountnumber.Text & "', payments.checkroutingnumber='" & _
erouting.Text & "', payments.cardexpirationdate='" & eexpmonth.Text & "/" & _
eexpireyear.Text & "', payments.cardexpirationmonth='" & _
eexpmonth.Text & "', payments.cardexpirationyear='" & eexpireyear.Text & _
"', payments.cardaddress='" & eaddy.Text & "', payments.cardzipcode='" & _
ezip.Text & "', payments.threedigitnumber='" & ecvv.Text & _
"' where payments.filenumber='" & TextBox1.Text & "' and paymentstatus='PENDING';"
myconnstringtps = "server=localhost; user id=root; " & _
"password=1C0cac0la; database=collectionsmax"
Try
conntps.Open()
Try
mycommand.Connection = conntps
mycommand.CommandText = Updatepayments
mycommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
conntps.Close()
mycommand.Dispose()
Catch myerror As MySqlException
MsgBox("error connecting:" & myerror.Message)
End Try
Catch myerror As MySqlException
MsgBox("error connecting:" & myerror.Message)
Finally
If conntps.State <> ConnectionState.Closed Then conntps.Close()
MsgBox("Successfully Changed")
End Try
I am not getting any errors or exceptions when attempting to run the code.
I have tried to output the generated update query to a text box and running the code though mysql management studio, and it works perfectly. so im pretty sure its not an issue with the actual query being sent to the server.
I have used almost this exact same code to do insert into statements with no issues.
It is not updating the database when the code is ran through my VB.net application using the above outlined code.
You don't set the connection string in the MySqlConnection
myconnstringtps = "server=localhost; user id=root; password=1C0cac0la;......"
conntps = New MySqlConnection(myconnstringtps)
apart from that, you need to use parametrized query to avoid problems with single quotes inside your strings and the Sql Injection Attack security problem
Dim Updatepayments As String = "update payments " & _
"set payments.payorname=#name," & _
"payments.cardnumber=#cnum," & _
"payments.bankname=#bank," & _
"payments.checkaccountnumber=#actnum," & _
"payments.checkroutingnumber=#routing," & _
"payments.cardexpirationdate=#monthyear," & _
"payments.cardexpirationmonth=#month," & _
"payments.cardexpirationyear=#year," & _
"payments.cardaddress=#address," & _
"payments.cardzipcode=#zip," & _
"payments.threedigitnumber=#digits " & _
"where payments.filenumber=#file and paymentstatus='PENDING'"
Dim mycommand As New MySqlCommand(Updatepayments, conntps)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#name", epayorname.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#cnum", eccnumber.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#bank", ebankname.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#actnum", eaccountnumber.Text);
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#routing", erouting.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#monthyear", eexpmonth.Text & "/" & eexpireyear.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#month", eexpmonth.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#year", eexpireyear.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#address", eaddy.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#zip", ezip.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#digits", ecvv.Text)
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#file", TextBox1.Text)
Other problematic point: Are you sure that your fields are all of string type? You pass for every field a string and surround the value with single quotes. This could fail if someone of your fields are not of string type. (these fields in particular could be not of string type payments.cardnumber, payments.checkaccountnumber, payments.cardexpirationmonth,payments.cardexpirationyear,payments.threedigitnumber)
Use command parameters. This makes it both safer (SQL injection) and easier to handle.
Dim Updatepayments As String = "UPDATE payments SET payments.payorname=#1, " & _
"payments.cardnumber=#2, ..." & _
"WHERE payments.filenumber=#11 AND paymentstatus='PENDING';"
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#1", epayorname.Text);
mycommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#2", eccnumber.Text);
...
You can also use parameter names like #epayorname with SQL-Server but some connection types (like ODBC) only allow positional parameters.
Red alert You are obviously dealing with credit card information here and yet you are leaving yourself and your customers vulnerable to SQL injection attacks!
Also you have a password in your code that you posted on the public Internet!
