I've been given working ASP code which I have to change in order to update existing data in database insted of creating new entries. I think I should swap INSERT INTO statment with UPDATE but the code is a bit too coplicated for me to figure out where and what to change. Here it comes:\[code\]// *** Edit Operations: declare variables// set the form action variablevar MM_editAction = Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME");if (Request.QueryString) {MM_editAction += "?" + Server.HTMLEncode(Request.QueryString);}// boolean to abort record editvar MM_abortEdit = false;// query string to executevar MM_editQuery = "";// *** Insert Record: set variablesif (String(Request("MM_insert")) == "AddRecord") { var MM_editConnection = MM_PhoneWeb_conn_STRING; var MM_editTable = "Employees"; var MM_editRedirectUrl = "userRegister.asp"; var MM_fieldsStr = "textSurname|value|textFirstname|value|textUsername|value|textPass|value"; var MM_columnsStr = "Surname|',none,''|FirstName|',none,''|Username|',none,''|Password|',none,''"; // create the MM_fields and MM_columns arrays var MM_fields = MM_fieldsStr.split("|"); var MM_columns = MM_columnsStr.split("|"); // set the form values for (var i=0; i+1 < MM_fields.length; i+=2) { MM_fields[i+1] = String(Request.Form(MM_fields)); } // append the query string to the redirect URL if (MM_editRedirectUrl && Request.QueryString && Request.QueryString.Count > 0) { MM_editRedirectUrl += ((MM_editRedirectUrl.indexOf('?') == -1)?"?":"&") + Request.QueryString; }}// *** Insert Record: construct a sql insert statement and execute itif (String(Request("MM_insert")) != "undefined") { // create the sql insert statement var MM_tableValues = "", MM_dbValues = ""; for (var i=0; i+1 < MM_fields.length; i+=2) { var formVal = MM_fields[i+1]; var MM_typesArray = MM_columns[i+1].split(","); var delim = (MM_typesArray[0] != "none") ? MM_typesArray[0] : ""; var altVal = (MM_typesArray[1] != "none") ? MM_typesArray[1] : ""; var emptyVal = (MM_typesArray[2] != "none") ? MM_typesArray[2] : ""; if (formVal == "" || formVal == "undefined") { formVal = emptyVal; } else { if (altVal != "") { formVal = altVal; } else if (delim == "'") { // escape quotes formVal = "'" + formVal.replace(/'/g,"''") + "'"; } else { formVal = delim + formVal + delim; } } MM_tableValues += ((i != 0) ? "," : "") + MM_columns; MM_dbValues += ((i != 0) ? "," : "") + formVal; } MM_editQuery = "insert into " + MM_editTable + " (" + MM_tableValues + ") values (" + MM_dbValues + ")"; if (!MM_abortEdit) { // execute the insert var MM_editCmd = Server.CreateObject('ADODB.Command'); MM_editCmd.ActiveConnection = MM_editConnection; MM_editCmd.CommandText = MM_editQuery; MM_editCmd.Execute(); MM_editCmd.ActiveConnection.Close(); if (MM_editRedirectUrl) { Response.Redirect(MM_editRedirectUrl);\[/code\]
