I have now tried your method with the tValues array directly and by deconstructing the array as below and it does not work. I have a recollection of not being able to get this to work with an array which is why I did the way I did.
All the best Terry put q(tAccountName) into tAccountName put q(tValues["uniqueID"]) into tUniqueID put q(tValues["date"]) into tDate put q(tValues["type"]) into tType put q(tValues["description"]) into tDescription put q(tValues["amount"]) into tAmount put q(tValues["balance"]) into tBalance put q(tValues["category"]) into tCategory put merge("[[tUniqueID]],[[tDate]],[[tType]],[[tDescription]],[[tAmount]],[[tBalance]],[[tCategory]]”) into tValues put ":1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6,:7" into tPlaceHolders put merge("INSERT INTO [[tAccountName]] VALUES([[tPlaceHolders]])") into tSQL put tSQL & " " & tValues revExecuteSQL dbGetID(),tSQL,tValues > On 7 Jul 2021, at 07:52, Terence Heaford via use-livecode > <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > Here’s an example I have been using, not sure whether it will help: > > function dbAddTransaction tAccountName,tValues > > put q(tAccountName) into tAccountName > > put q(tValues["uniqueID"]) into tUniqueID > > put q(tValues["date"]) into tDate > > put q(tValues["type"]) into tType > > put q(tValues["description"]) into tDescription > > put q(tValues["amount"]) into tAmount > > put q(tValues["balance"]) into tBalance > > put q(tValues["category"]) into tCategory > > put "uniqueID,date,type,description,amount,balance,category" into tFields > > put > merge("[[tUniqueID]],[[tDate]],[[tType]],[[tDescription]],[[tAmount]],[[tBalance]],[[tCategory]]")into > tValues > > put merge("INSERT INTO [[tAccountName]] ([[tFields]]) VALUES([[tValues]])") > into tSQL > > revExecuteSQL dbGetID(), tSQL > > put the result into tErr > > return tErr > > end dbAddTransaction > > ------------------------- > > function dbEscapeSqlite tText > > replace "'" with "''" in tText > > return tText > > end dbEscapeSqlite > > ------------------- > > function q tText > > return "'" & dbEscapeSqlite(tText) & "'" > > end q > > ------------------- > > > > >> On 7 Jul 2021, at 00:06, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode >> <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: >> >> Hi all. >> >> I assemble an SQL statement that looks like this: >> >> insert into ObjectProperties (recordid,rect,controlname,owner,visible) >> VALUES (:1,:2,:3,:4,:5) >> >> I then execute this statement: >> >> revExecuteSQL tDBID, tInsertSQL, aRecordData >> >> I get records but with no data in them.
