A yes/no field in access works by you inserting a 1 or a 0. So don't try to insert text. Check your vars and then insert a '1' as appropriate.

However, recall that if a checkbox is not checked then it won't appear in your CGI query variables.

Unless you can switch to radio buttons (so testing for the 'off') you'll need to makre sure you have the correct logic. Ie: if this query variable isn't present then insert 0.

Or alternatively ensure all your yes/no fields default to 'off'.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
