I'm using following query to update a record in an Access table, but I'm getting a syntax error?
How can I do this?
string str = string.Format("UPDATE [MIX] SET[Stock quantity],[Retail price],[Original price])Values(?,?,?,?) WHERE [Brand name]=@brandname");
OleDbCommand comd = new OleDbCommand(str, conn);
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@brandname", comboBox3.Text);
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Stock quantity", comboBox1.Text);
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Retail price", comboBox4.Text);
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Original price", comboBox5.Text);
comd.ExecuteNonQuery();
What you need is something more like this:
string str =
"UPDATE [MIX] SET " +
"[Stock quantity] = ?, " +
"[Retail price] = ?, " +
"[Original price] = ? " +
"WHERE [Brand name] = ?";
OleDbCommand comd = new OleDbCommand(str, conn);
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("?", comboBox1.Text); // [Stock quantity]
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("?", comboBox4.Text); // [Retail price]
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("?", comboBox5.Text); // [Original price]
comd.Parameters.AddWithValue("?", comboBox3.Text); // [Brand name]
comd.ExecuteNonQuery();
Note that the parameters are defined in the exact same order that they appear in the CommandText.
