I am trying to insert records into my table but keep getting an error due to the dash (Invalid column name 'NJB572'), how can I go about this? I have 2 columns in this table, both VARCHAR.
INSERT INTO dbo.Inventory VALUES
(131-NJB572, 'BROOM')
(PTI-I20, '9/16 IRONWORKERS')
(PTI-I16, '13/16" PUNCH');


You can use quotes to wrap the column names.
Try,
INSERT INTO dbo.Inventory VALUES
('131-NJB572', 'BROOM')
,('PTI-I20', '9/16 IRONWORKERS')
,('PTI-I16', '13/16" PUNCH');

I have column StartDate and i need to insert this date
INSERT INTO Products(StartDate) VALUES(2001-01-01 00:00:00.000)
There but it doesn't work

The problem is that you need single quotes around your literal datetime value.
If the millseconds are added depends on the datatype of the column.
INSERT INTO Products(StartDate) VALUES('2001-01-01 00:00:00.000')

I'd like to insert any value using 'insert into' but it doesn't work. What is "Column not found error"? [closed]

I created table "member". It has two columns name, id and no values. And I'm trying to insert value "spring" into column name!
But It doesn't work...Can anybody help me please?
I wrote like this:
insert into member(name) values("spring");
error is:
Column "spring" not found; SQL statement:
insert into member(name)
values("spring") [42122-200] 42S22/42122

You should use single quotes for your String/Varchar values.
Try this query:
insert into member(name) values('spring');

I am getting this error
ERROR: syntax error at or near "("Position: 65```
for the following query
insert into Employee(no,name,phone) values ((1,Kenit,999999999)(2,Kenit,999999999)(3,Kenit,999999999)(4,Kenit,999999999)(5,Kenit,999999999)(6,Kenit,999999999))

Probably you need commas between paranthesis for each record. And "Kenit" should be in quotes
insert into Employee(no,name,phone) values ((1,'Kenit',999999999),
(2,'Kenit',999999999),(3,'Kenit',999999999),(4,'Kenit',999999999),
(5,'Kenit',999999999),(6,'Kenit',999999999))

Try googling.

INSERT INTO table_name (column_list)
VALUES
(value_list_1),
(value_list_2),
...
(value_list_n);
INSERT INTO Employee (no,name,phone) VALUES ((1,Kenit,999999999),(2,Kenit,999999999),(3,Kenit,999999999),(4,Kenit,999999999),(5,Kenit,999999999),(6,Kenit,999999999));
happy to help
also: phone numbers should be saved in strings, as well as your names. so adding quotation marks helps not only in readability of the code it gives required LOGIC:
example:
...('asdf', 123, '+8920841209')

Basically I'm selecting all the rows from a table and stripping the time portion of the date using
CAST(CREATE_DATE AS DATE)
but my results give me the rows I need but the column is unnamed.
How do I give the column a name?

Like this:
Cast(create_date as date) as [Column Name Here]
You can omit the [] if you are not using spaces or reserved words in your column name (which is good practice anyway).
