Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Re: Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    Thanks Pat still struggling with the args, but like an old English teacher told me punctuation is everything period! You spurred me to seek the result of sql_insert my answer was a ? mark away all the time!
    sql_insert = "INSERT INTO stripe_subscription_plans (amount,object,currency) values ('" + amount + "','" + object + "','" + currency + "')"
    ?sql_insert
    = "INSERT INTO stripe_subscription_plans (amount,object,currency) values ('1234','4321','usd')"

    Re: Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    Couple things,
    First, if you want to use arguments, then your execute should be something like
    dim flag as L
    flag = conn.execute(sql_insert,args)

    when I'm building the statement as a string I like to use evaluate_string like
    sql_insert = "insert into stripe_plan_2 (Amount_Confirmed,Date_Created,Mode,Product_GUID,Interval_Frequency,Currency_Type) values ( {Amount_Confirmed},{Date_Created},{Mode},{Product_GUID},'year',{Currency_Type})"

    sql_insert = evaluate_string(sql_insert)

    If you want to use your approach, then you need to remember to single quote string values such as
    values ('" + Amount_Confirmed + "','" + Date_Created + "',

    Re: Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    Trying to put together a string this way doesn't work well inconsistent.

    Keep getting this error when I start to build out the statement to multiple fields:
    Internal Parser Error-Node type cannot be mapped for the requested object

    Funny was able to build the string out 4 fields and if I include a 'literal' more but when I put the fifth variable I get the error

    Thinking it is not building the string as needed. My sql back end is mysql
    Thinking the args would work better, or is the problem one in the same?
    Built the table to match the controls on a ux used the Alpha Genie all character fields.
    dim conn as SQL::Connection
    dim ins as SQL::InsertStatement
    dim qry as SQL::Query
    dim rs as SQL::ResultSet
    dim cs as SQL::CallResult
    dim connString as C
    dim sql_insert as C
    dim sql_query as C

    Amount_Confirmed = "4000"
    Date_Created = "345676"
    Currency_Type = "usd"
    Plan_ID = "3456_ty"
    Interval_Frequency = "year"
    Mode = "1"
    Product_Type = "Type"
    Product_GUID = "49586799"
    Trial_length = "45"

    connString = "::Name::rmqv12"
    sql_insert = "insert into stripe_plan_2 (Amount_Confirmed,Date_Created,Mode,Product_GUID,Interval_Frequency,Currency_Type) values (" + Amount_Confirmed + "," + Date_Created + "," + Mode + "," + Product_GUID + ",'year'," + Currency_Type + ")"
    IF .not. conn.open(connString) THEN
    end
    END IF
    IF .not. ins.parse(sql_insert) THEN
    ui_msg_box("Error", ins.callresult.text)
    end
    END IF

    ins.execute(conn)
    cs = ins.CallResult
    ui_msg_box("Call result", cs.Text)

    Re: Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    This works but seems pretty low tech and likely to frustrate a dyslexic A D D type like myself
    dim conn as SQL::Connection
    dim ins as SQL::InsertStatement
    dim qry as SQL::Query
    dim rs as SQL::ResultSet
    dim cs as SQL::CallResult
    dim connString as C
    dim sql_insert as C
    dim sql_query as C
    dim plan as c
    plan = "3456"
    connString = "::Name::ABC"
    sql_insert = "insert into stripe_plan_2 (plan_id) values (" + plan + ")"

    'dim args as SQL::Arguments
    'args.set("plan","6789")

    IF .not. conn.open(connString) THEN
    end
    END IF
    IF .not. ins.parse(sql_insert) THEN
    ui_msg_box("Error", ins.callresult.text)
    end
    END IF

    ins.execute(conn)
    cs = ins.CallResult
    ui_msg_box("Call result", cs.Text)

    started a topic Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    Inserting record in sql table with args as values

    This code succeeds but the arg value is empty? So a record is inserted into the database but the plan_id field is empty. Running it in the interactive window.
    Looked simple in the examples and posts that I found. What am I missing?
    dim conn as SQL::Connection
    dim ins as SQL::InsertStatement
    dim qry as SQL::Query
    dim rs as SQL::ResultSet
    dim cs as SQL::CallResult
    dim connString as C
    dim sql_insert as C
    dim sql_query as C

    connString = "::Name::ABC"
    sql_insert = "insert into stripe_plan_2 (plan_id) values (:plan)"

    dim args as SQL::Arguments
    args.set("plan","6789")

    IF .not. conn.open(connString) THEN
    end
    END IF
    IF .not. ins.parse(sql_insert) THEN
    ui_msg_box("Error", ins.callresult.text)
    end
    END IF

    ins.execute(conn)
    cs = ins.CallResult
    ui_msg_box("Call result", cs.Text)
