OleDB INSERT command error

10,090

Solution 1

You defined @Username and @Password parameters but you never used in your sql command.

How about?

cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Accountstbl (Username, [Password]) VALUES (@Username, @Password)";
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Username", textBox1.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Password", textBox2.Text);
cmd.Connection = con;
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

Also you should use Password in square brackets on your sql command like [Password] because it is a reserved keyword in MS Access.

If you don't this can cause an error like;

Incorrect syntax near the keyword "Password"

Solution 2

Try to change this way

 cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Accountstbl (Username, Password) VALUES (@Username,@Password)";

    I have a database (i use MS ACCESS) I have this insert code, I can read data but got error when writing, I follow instruction but it didn't work here is my code

    OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(@" provider=Microsoft.ace.Oledb.12.0; data source=\\sisc-erelim\4_Printing\VTDB\DB\VirginiTEADB2.accdb; Persist Security Info=False");
    
    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                try
                {
                    OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand();
                    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
                    cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Accountstbl (Username, Password)" + "VALUES ('" + textBox1.Text + "','" + textBox2.Text + "')";
                    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Username", textBox1.Text);
                    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Password", textBox2.Text);
                    cmd.Connection = con;
                    con.Open();
                    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    textBox1.Text = ex.ToString();
                }
    

    And I always got this error,

    System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.
