Database Engine 0x80040e14 Syntax Error
actual cause of the error. There are a number of possible causes: Scenario 1 - Syntax error in FROM clause Scenario 2a - Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement Scenario 2b - Syntax error in UPDATE statement Scenario 3a - Syntax error (missing operator) - caused by ' mark Scenario 3b - Syntax error (missing operator) - incorrect delimiters Scenario 4 - Syntax error - division by zero error Scenario 5 - Mismatched CommandTypeEnum value Scenario 1 - Syntax error in FROM clause This commonly occurs when you have a table name that is a reserved word or your table name contains a space (eg "table 1"). Certain words (like table, field, date, select, password, level etc) are reserved by either ADO, OLEDB or by Access for use as commands or system objects. You can get a list of words reserved by the Jet database engine in Microsoft Knowledge article: Q248738. The Microsoft MDAC Platform SDK outlines ADO/OLEDB reserved words. You should never use these words as names for tables or fields nor should you have spaces in your tablenames. It is recommended that you rename your offending tables/fields and adjust your SQL statement accordingly. If this is not possible you should enclose your offending table names with [ ] marks, eg SELECT field1 FROM [table] Scenario 2a - Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement. This commonly occurs when your field name is a reserved word (see scenario 1 above). Adjust your field names and SQL statement accordingly and you should avoid the problem. If you can't adjust your fieldnames you can use [ ] marks to delimit the field names, eg INSERT INTO table1 ([field], [password]) VALUES ('value1', 'value2') Scenario 2b - Syntax error in UPDATE statement. This has the same cause as Scenario 2a immediately above. Scenario 3a - Syntax Error (Missing Operator) This is commonly caused when some value that you are trying to SELECT/UPDATE etc contains a single quote mark. The error that you receive looks like: Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040e14) Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Name = 'O'Malleys''. Because of the presence of the ' in the name O'Malleys the database engine thinks that you are constructing a WHERE clause like: WHERE name = 'O' and doesn't know what to do with the rest of the name (Malleys). To solve this problem you need to use the Replac

I can't see any wrong with your code, I wild guess is that the date format in the database doesn't accept the date input.
