Hi John,

What is the error you get?

Why do you have return in your syntax? Usually, SQLite syntax doesn't contain returns (even though it can). If you want to include a return as part of data, you need to encode or escape it.

Additionally, you're combining curly quotes with straight quotes. Don't mix them.

Hi All,

I have a very simple SQL Lite database consisting of three fields, an ID 
(INTEGER PRIMARY KEY) and two basic fields (technology char(200) and notes 
char(200).

I am trying to INSERT records into the database.

This works:

  repeat with x=1 to the number of items in tTopics
       put item y of tTopics into $technology
       put item y of tTopics into $notes
       put "INSERT into teacher_notes VALUES (null,'" & $technology & "','" & $notes & 
"');" into tSQL
       revExecuteSQL tDatabaseID, tSQL

This doesn’t work:

repeat with x=1 to the number of items in tTopics
       put item y of tTopics into $technology
       put item y of tTopics into $notes
       put "null" into $id
       put "INSERT INTO teacher_notes(" & return & \
             “id, technology, notes)" & \
             "VALUES(" & return & \
             "1:, 2:, 3:)" into tSQL
       --answer tSQL
       revExecuteSQL tDatabaseID, tSQL, "$id", "$technology", "$notes”

Can anybody point out what I’m missing in the second version?

Thank you!
