You want to insert values into two columns, photo_filename and
photo_mls_number, but you are only selecting out one value and on top of
that it is from dual and that in itself will thrown an error, just try
running:
select photo_filename from dual
and you will see what I mean.
You need to be selecting out from dual the two values you want to insert in,
so:
select <cfqueryparam value="#photolist.name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" />,
<cfqueryparam value="#ListFist(photolist.name, '_')#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" /> from dual
Now you want to select those out when they do not exist so you need to add
the WHERE NOT EXISTS to that, something like:
select <cfqueryparam value="#photolist.name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" />,
<cfqueryparam value="#ListFist(photolist.name, '_')#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" /> from dual
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT photo_filename FROM HMLS_PHOTOS WHERE PHOTO_FILENAME = <cfqueryparam
value="#photolist.name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" />)
Now you want to insert this into your table so something like:
INSERT INTO HMLS_PHOTOS
(photo_filename, photo_mls_number)
select <cfqueryparam value="#photolist.name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" />,
<cfqueryparam value="#ListFist(photolist.name, '_')#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" /> from dual
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT photo_filename FROM HMLS_PHOTOS WHERE PHOTO_FILENAME = <cfqueryparam
value="#photolist.name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" />)
That was all written without testing so might have typos but it is the exact
idea from those links I posted, I just applied their answers to your
fields. I'd hope that would work, assuming no typos on my part.
