Hi all,

I am having my first go at databases, have been playing with Knoda for a 
few days now and not got very far, although am learning a lot about how 
databases work in general.

I want to have a form and write data from a form to table; I have set up 
a very basic test table called People which has three fields: ID, which 
is auto increment, Name which is text and Telephone which is text. (All 
very Mickey Mouse for the moment.) I have then made a little form with 
two lineeditfields and one button. The lineeditfields are called  
NameInputField and TelephoneInputField.

I clicked on the button I placed on the form, and clicked on "On Click" 
which opened up the little edit box and - with some help from my brother 
who's done lots of SQL - I put the following:

INSERT INTO People (Name,Telephone) VALUES (NameInputField, 
TelephoneInputField)

Now, I have seen a reference to SQL in the help files saying you have to 
use double quotation marks, so I tried this:

INSERT INTO "People" ("Name","Telephone") VALUES ("NameInputField", 
"TelephoneInputField")

I also tried single quotation marks, and only put the quotation marks as 
so: ("Name,Telephone").

In all instances I get this error:

Line 1: Invalid Syntax  (<string>, line 1) and it opens up the edit box 
with the SQL in it...

It's flummoxed my brother as well (who is in a different country and 
trying to debug via Yahoo), so we must be missing some fundamental point 
here. I'd be very grateful for a point in the right direction/

Cheers,

Rob.
