thanks John,
yes I tried that too.
I'm thinking I must have an error somewhere else now.
the servlet gets right up to: stmt.executeUpdate(sql);

Subject: Re: SQL string
Hi Paul,
Don't you need single quotes surrounding the values which you are
inserting??
for example: INSERT INTO table (field1,field2) VALUES
('value1','value2')
Cheers,
