Hi,

Try this:

C#

const string insertsql = "INSERT INTO Items(DoNumber,ItemNo,Description,Qty) VALUES ('";
            sb.AppendFormat("{0}", insertsql) + "'";

Two things I've noticed. Why don't you have a comma between the 3rd and 4th values here:

sb.AppendFormat("{0},'{1}','{2}''{3}');", doId1, splitItems[0], splitItems[1], splitItems[2]);

And also why don't you have ' around {0} since the value is not a number?

Both of these are probably causing issues, but I think the second issue is the cause of the error message. You probably need to fix both though.

Solution 3

C#

sb.AppendFormat("{0},'{1}','{2}''{3}');", doId1, splitItems[0], splitItems[1], splitItems[2])

change into

C#

sb.AppendFormat("'{0}','{1}','{2}','{3}');", doId1, splitItems[0], splitItems[1], splitItems[2])

Solution 4

1- the Value inside stringBuilder you placed has comma missing between 'vcjj' & '2'
2- what is the typeof DoNumber filed in table, is it int, if yest then you can't add do to it and if its type is varchar then the value 2011002-Do is also not surrounded with single quotation marks?
