Question

I keep getting an syntax error during runtime when this query is called.

adoquery1.Active := false;
adoquery1.SQL.Clear;
SQLQuery := 'INSERT INTO Comics ';
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + '(Name,Issue,Series,Volume,Poster,';
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + 'Desc,Writer,Artist,Read,Link,Extra) ';
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + 'VALUE('+ quotedstr(SeriesName+' '+IssueNumber);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(IssueNumber);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(SeriesName);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(VolumeNumber);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(Poster);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(Desc);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(Writer);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(Artist);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(haveRead);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(filelink);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ','+ quotedstr(Extra);
SQLQuery := SQLQuery + ')';
memo1.Text := SQLQuery;
adoquery1.SQL.Add(SQLQuery);
adoquery1.Active := true;

When i do the memo1.text = sqlquery, it looks to be ok, any suggestions?
this is what i get in the memo1.text..

INSERT INTO Comics (Name,Issue,Series,Volume,Poster,Desc,Writer,Artist,Read,Link,Extra VALUE('xmen 8','8','xmen','1','na','Some Description','BOBwriter','BOBArtist','Yes','C:\Comics\xmen8.cbr','Some Extra info')

Answer 1

Desc is a reserved word, so you should use [Desc] or enclose it in backticks (I don’t know which database you’re using).
More: I think it should be VALUES( and not VALUE(.

INSERT INTO Comics 
    (Name, Issue, Series, Volume, Poster, [Desc],
     Writer, Artist, [Read], Link, Extra) 
VALUES
    ('xmen 8', '8', 'xmen', '1', 'na', 'Some Description',
     'BOBwriter', 'BOBArtist', 'Yes', 'C:\Comics\xmen8.cbr','Some Extra info')
