I would like to update two tables at the same time.
Currently I update each one separately, like so,
$qryStr = "INSERT INTO table1 etc....";
odbc_exec($dbConn, $qryStr);
$qryStr = "INSERT INTO table2 etc....";
odbc_exec($dbConn, $qryStr);
Now, the problem there is if the first one passes, but the second fails, if the user
tries to re-submit, the first now fails because of a primary key clash which is right,
but then never executes the second one.
This is what I THINK I should do,
$qryStr = "(INSERT INTO table1 ( col1, col2 ) VALUES ( '$val1', '$val2' ) ) AND
(INSERT INTO table2 ( col1, col2 ) VALUES ( '$val1', '$val2' ) )";
odbc_exec($dbConn, $qryStr);
Any ideas are appreciated... I am not experienced with SQL query precedences, or
operators, etc... A good reference for that very thing would be nice.
Thanks in advance,
RDB
