At first the date was being accepted but "wrong" in the database. It was setting it to 1/1/2000. Someone suggested I add '' around the value. Apparently it didn't like that and started saying I had a SQL error. I've tried a number of things, so far without success. This is the current error: "0: 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '', 1, 1, 24, 25, 10/28/2004)' at line 5 " While this is probably a waste of bandwidth here is my statement: $query = "INSERT INTO CorrectTableName(RecordID,UserID,ProfileName, Edu, WorkAuth, WorkExp, CarLev, Secu, Confi, Relo, Telecomu, City1, State1, City2, State2, TravelPref, SalaryAnnual, SalaryHourly, Available) VALUES (null, null, '$f1a', $f2a, $f2c, $f2d, $f2e, $f2g, '$f5b', '$f3m', '$f3n', '$f3e', $f3f, $f3g', $f3h, $f3i, $f3j, $f3k, $f3l)"; Outside of the date I don't see where the error could be coming from. Fields with quotes are string values. I have no idea. Stuart -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
