Question

I’m working on a database project about adding, editing and deleting registries to a Students table which has fields:

Last_names, Names, IcNumber, Average, Entry_mode, Career and Change

In the editing frame i have a field where user types the icnumber of the student to edit its data, asks for the new data and saves it to a “Students” data structure, and then reupdates the registry with the new data:

String stmnt = "Insert Into Students (Last_names, Names, IcNumber, Average, " + 
        "Entry_mode, Career, Change) Values ('" + student.getLastNames() + 
        "', '" + student.getNames() + "', '" + student.getIcNumber() + "', " +
        student.getAverage() + ", '" + student.getEntry() + "', '" +
        student.getCareer() + "', '" + student.getChange() + "') " +
        "Where IcNumber = '" + field.getText() + "'";

statement.execute(stmnt);

And i get this Error message:

[Microsoft][Microsoft Access ODBC Driver] “Query input must contain at least one table or query.”

I have tried a similar SQL Instruction in the adding registry area of my program without the “Where” condition and works good, anyone knows about that error?

Answer 1

Why are you using where in a insert statement? Where clause is applicable in select, update and delete statements but not in insert. Also I don’t see any need of the where clause in your query.

Simply use the insert statement without where clause.
