Hi

I have a servlet which supposed to update my Access table. My table contains 3 fields :
account,password,name.
I ran below snippets of my servlet and compiler gave me SQL syntax error.
String INSERT ="INSERT INTO login-table (login_id ,password ,name) " + "VALUES (?, ?, ?)";
PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
pstmt = con.prepareStatement(INSERT);
pstmt.setString(1, account);
pstmt.setString(2,password);
pstmt.setString(3,name);

I also tried this SQL format .
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO login-table " + " (login_id ,password ,name ) " + "VALUES " + "('" + account + "', '" + password + "', '" + name + "');");
Also gave me SQL syntax error
Pls help

Could you paste the exact SQLException tht you get when executing the first statement?
On what line does the error occur?
What driver are you using / could you paste entire servlet?
