inserting multiple rows with 1 query
Solution 1
With Access SQL you can't combine two INSERT
statements. You could run each of them separately. But if you need to do it with a single statement, you will need to use a more complex query.
INSERT INTO Employee
SELECT '1','b','c'
FROM Dual
UNION ALL
SELECT '2','d','e'
FROM Dual;
Dual
is a custom table designed to always contain only one row. You can create your own Dual
table using the instructions from this Stack Overflow answer.
However, you don't actually need a custom table for this purpose. Instead of Dual
, you can use any table or query which returns only one row.
Solution 2
try this
INSERT INTO Table ( Column1, Column2 ) VALUES
( Value1, Value2 ), ( Value1, Value2 )
INSERT INTO Employee values (('1','b','c'),('2','d','e'));

I have problem in inserting multiple rows with 1 query using ms access 2003. When I use
INSERT INTO
like the code belowINSERT INTO Employee values ('1','b','c'); INSERT INTO Employee values ('2','d','e');
the problem, ms access always appears pop up characters found after end of SQL Statement. So, are there any way to insert the data into the table?
