I changed my connection string from the UD created one to: MM_Loop_STRING = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("\looppharmacy\database\Loop_Pharmacy.mdb" & ";"
Since then my registration page (per Hiran's tutorial) won't work. I have had problems all weekend dealing with the ADO command object and keep getting the same error:
Error Type:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E14)
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.
/looppharmacy/registration.asp, line 117


Is there some issue dealing with command object? Is there something missing from the connection string?
here is the code that inserts:
