>Yes I believe that I can, i just haven't done it yet because I didn't want to type that much. I like the idea of using the command builder, but I mostly want a solution that works. I'm sorry, but I don't know what you mean by SP

>Jim,

>>Can you specify your InsertCommand directly or use the SP instead? Or do you prefer to use CommandBuilder?
>>
>>What database you're using?

>>>Hi All,
>>>
>>>Using the code below, I am trying to insert a row of data havine 72 columns into the database. When I reach the line of code that updates the adapter an error is thrown that simply says "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.". When I comment out this line the code runs with no errors, but the database is obviously not updated.
>>>
>>>I have checked and double-checked all column headings for accuracy and the only thing that I question is that the first column is a PK auto increment field that I do not attempt to update, and the second column is a date field that has a default entry of now() which I also do not update.
>>>
>>>Searching the internet only reveals many conversations about whether or not the commandBuilder correctly formats the INSERT statement, but nothing as to the underlying cause or solution to the problem.
>>>
>>>Any thoughts would br greatly appreciated.

>>>Thanks,
