If you don't have any error message, what make you think it doesn't work? FYI, I have run the following commands from mysql client:
mysql> use test Database changed mysql> create table Table1 (Id int not null auto_increment primary key, Product varchar(80), Qty int); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> Insert Into Table1 (Product, Qty) Values ("56-56", 5), ("27-01", 1), ("15-02", 2); Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec) Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 mysql> select * from Table1; +----+---------+------+ | Id | Product | Qty | +----+---------+------+ | 1 | 56-56 | 5 | | 2 | 27-01 | 1 | | 3 | 15-02 | 2 | +----+---------+------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec) It really seems to work ;) Regards, Joseph Bueno Ed Reed wrote: > I created a new table called Table1 and did a test with that command.
