how do you let the ' go as a part of the string? I have used %s as placeholder as in queryString = "insert into venders values ('%s,%s,%s" % (field1,field2,field3 ) ... This is not working for the ' values.
This is untested, but I think what you want is: cursor.execute("insert into venders values (?, ?, ?)", field1, field2, field3) This uses parameter binding and should properly quote the values. It's also the "right way" to do it to avoid sql injection attacks and for efficiency if you run the same query multiple times. --RDM -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
