Hi, I am Creating a room booking system for a university using a webpage as a front end for the student to rregister for the accommodation. The problem i am having is very strange. On line 96 of the code is the line Dconn.Execute addOccupancySQL which refers to the sql addOccupancySQL = "INSERT INTO tblOccupancy(roomID, studentID) VALUES ('" & introomID & "','" & intstID & "')" The database relationships look like this heres the code: -- Declare variables Dim DataConnection, cmdDC, RecordSet, SQL, strError Dim strfName, strsName, stradd1, stradd2, strtown, strcity, strpCode, strtelNo, stremail, intstID, int1styr, intOS, intDWP, intMob, intWCGF '-- Get data from the form fields intstID = Request.Form("txtstID") strfName = Request.Form("txtfName") strsName = Request.Form("txtsurname") stradd1 = Request.Form("txtadd1") stradd2 = Request.Form("txtadd2") strtown = Request.Form("txttown") strcity = Request.Form("txtcity") strpCode = Request.Form("txtpCode") strtelNo = Request.Form("txttelNo") stremail = Request.Form("txtemail") strgender = Request.Form("radiogroupgender") int1styr = Request.Form("radiogroup1stYr") intOS = Request.Form("radiogroupOverseas") intDWP = Request.Form("radiogroupDWP") intWCGF = Request.Form("radiogroupWCGF") intMob = Request.Form("radiogroupMob") '-- Create object and open database Set DataConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") DataConnection.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=c:\sites\content\a\u\s\austinpickering\db\accomDB1.mdb;" & _ "Persist Security Info=False" Set cmdDC = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") cmdDC.ActiveConnection = DataConnection SQL = "SELECT tblapplicant.* FROM tblapplicant" cmdDC.CommandText = SQL Set RecordSet = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") '-- Cursor Type, Lock Type '-- ForwardOnly 0 - ReadOnly 1 '-- KeySet 1 - Pessimistic 2 '-- Dynamic 2 - Optimistic 3 '-- Static 3 - BatchOptimistic 4 RecordSet.Open cmdDC, , 0, 3 Dim Dconn, addApplicantSQL, addCircSQL, addtoWaitlistSQL, introomID, strGFAccom Set Dconn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Dconn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=c:\sites\content\a\u\s\austinpickering\db\accomDB1.mdb;" & _ "Persist Security Info=False" selectroomIDGFSQL =" SELECT tblroom.roomID FROM tblroom WHERE maxOccupants > currentOccupants AND gFloor = 1" addApplicantSQL = "INSERT INTO tblapplicant(studentID, gender, firstName, surname, address1, address2, town, city, postCode, telNo, email) VALUES ('" & intstID & "','" & strgender & "','" & strfName & "','" & strsName & "','" & stradd1 & "','" & strsadd2 & "','" & strtown & "','" & strcity & "','" & strpCode & "','" & strtelNo & "','" & stremail & "')" addCircSQL = "INSERT INTO tblCirc(studentID, disabled, wheelchair, firstYear, overseas, medical) VALUES ('" & intstID & "','" & intDWP & "','" & intWCGF & "','" & int1styr & "','" & intOS & "','" & intMob & "')" addtoWaitlistSQL = "INSERT INTO tblWaitlist(studentID) VALUES ('" & intstID & "')" addOccupancySQL = "INSERT INTO tblOccupancy(roomID, studentID) VALUES ('" & introomID & "','" & intstID & "')" 'add student to tbl applicant Dconn.Execute addApplicantSQL RecordSet.close 'if student is disabled or needs gfloor room then find a roomid with gfloor access and select that id if intWCGF or intDWP = 1 then Dconn.Execute addCircSQL cmdDC.CommandText = selectroomIDGFSQL RecordSet.Open cmdDC, , 0, 3 introomID = RecordSet.Fields("roomID") intstID = CLng(intstID) introomID = CLng(introomID) Response.Write" RoomID= " & introomID & " " Response.Write"StudentID= " & intstID & " " Dconn.Execute addOccupancySQL 'Dconn.Execute addOccupancySQL if int1styr or intmob or intOS = 1 then 'add values in radio buttons to tblCirc Dconn.Execute addCircSQL 'Dconn.Execute addOccupancySQL else 'add the student to the waitlist Dconn.Execute addtoWaitlistSQL Dconn.Close Set Dconn = Nothing end if end if 'Forward the user to page to notify of sucess Response.write "Your Application has been added to the database.

I have checked that the datatype is a number in both tables it is found in the database, and i have also made sure the value im entering is numeric by using response.write to show the 2 values i am enterting and both are as they should be... I hope sombody can help me out with this 1? Thanks in advance =)
there is no value assigned to introomID(at least in the pieace of code you have pasted) so I guess it is considered like variant type and this is causing the error.
anyway in which i can see a bigger version of your relationships i dont see anywhere in the code where the value for introomID is created
