Question : Missing semicolon (;) at end of SQL statement

I am getting a run-time error '3137 (Missing semicolon (;) at end of SQL statement error) with the following code:

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tbl_Addresses (CategoryID3) VALUES ('1') WHERE addressID = " & lstBox1

I have tried the following combinations, but none seem to work:

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tbl_Addresses (CategoryID3) VALUES ('1') WHERE (addressID = '" & lstBox1 & "')"

and

DoCmd.RunSQL "INSERT INTO tbl_Addresses (CategoryID3) VALUES ('1') WHERE (addressID = '" & lstBox1 & "');"

lstBox1 is bound to a number field when clicked.

Answer : Missing semicolon (;) at end of SQL statement

Is addressID a text field? If not then your first try should be right - you shouldn't need the ' ' around lstBox1.

Do you check the value of lstBox1 to make sure it has a value before trying.

And the semicolon at the end of an SQL statement should be optional (almost all of the time!)

Is CategoryID3 numeric?
