    Hmmm... have you tried executing your sql directly to check that it's working as you expect?

    yep, it works in sql -ps:fyi, that code works when a button is clicked. after I've changed it into showing the query it shows this insert into test(no, name, dob) values(23, 'sawqwd', '322');

    A hidden needle is way more effective than an unsheathed sword. That is, in the hand of professionals. What about you? Just pray your enemies are blind

      Well, if the code works when the button is clicked, and the sql works if you copy/paste it into Oracle and run it directly, there must be an error in the calling of the querydef... Do you have the correct syntax, parameters, names etc?

        Silly me, I actually only need to remove the semicolon and it works :omg:

        string query = "insert into test(no, name, dob) values(" + textBox2.Text + ", '" + textBox3.Text + "', '" + textBox4.Text + "')";

        Guess that would mean no semicolons when connecting from c# huh? :doh: It's so different from J2SE, :laugh: Thank for the assistance :)

          Dammit... the semicolon was the first thing I was going to mention, but when I checked oracle sql syntax it was there... :sigh: Glad you got it fixed!!

            It is not related to the language, could be a feature of the Provider MSDAORA that you're using.

              Conceptually you are executing a 'statement'. That is implicit. The semi-colon is superfluous in that context. You can however construct a statement which is composed of other statements. In that case the internal statements would require a semi-colon.

                    Everything's the same as above except this line

                    string query = "insert into test values(" + textBox2.Text + ", `" + textBox3.Text + "`, `" + textBox4.Text + "`);";

                    changed into

                    string query = "insert into test values(" + textBox2.Text + ", `" + textBox3.Text + "`, `" + textBox4.Text + "`);select * from test";

                      The second is not a statement. It is two statements. Investigate the use of Begin/End. Do it in a SQL browser/gui first before attempting to code it in C#.
