Hi everyone, I'm connecting to a SQL SVR 2000 database and get an error that I haven't been able to resolve. The following code generates an error Incorrect syntax near 'longer'; SQL state 3700 in SQLExecDirect I read some where that it might be due to a reserved word in column names, but this isn't the case. Here is the code: print("QID: $qID<br>Question to be updated to: $updateQuest"); $updateQuest = cleanUpText($updateQuest); $query = "update tbl_question "; $query .= "set question = '$updateQuest' "; $query .= "where questID = '$qID';"; print("<br><b>Query</b>= $query<br>"); print("Cleaned up: $updateQuest<br>"); $result = odbc_exec($conn, $updateQuest); unset($updateQuest); I can copy and paste the resultant SQL and execute it fine in the query analyser.
