asp_databases thread: Storing data into tables


Message #1 by mangal@i... on Tue, 18 Apr 2000 22:41:28
I am trying to save data into access database from a asp page text box. I 

am using statement like



str=" insert into test_table(text_Box) values ('"& request.form("Textbox") 

&"')".

     It workes fine. But when I enter the characters like ",',! into 

textbox. I get an error. Is there any other way to store text box data into 

tables.



Thanks.

Mangal

You need to escape those reserved characters, eg replace each ' with two '

using the Replace() function. Same with "



eg

strText = Replace(Request.Form("Textbox"), "'", "''")



Cheers

Ken
