Subject: no value for numeric filed in SQL statement causes an error
Hi there
I have a table with char and int fields. From my form I get no values back
for int fields when they are left blank. This causes the SQL insert to
fail.
field type
name char
id int2
city char
insert into table (name,id,city) values ('roger rabbit',,'carrot city')
The default for int/float fields is 0. Since I reuse the code of the
referring page I don't like to have all fields assigned 0 at the beginning.
Who can help ???
Thanks ... jr
