The following code examples show how to use data modification statements.

Procedure for Updates

You can use odbc_exec to execute data modification statements. This will return a resource which contains the number of affected rows.

INSERT

To insert updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "INSERT INTO ItemListing (Title) VALUES ('My Awesome Book II')");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);

UPDATE

To retrieve updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "UPDATE ItemListing SET Title = 'My Awesome Book II' WHERE AdminEndedItemsOnly = 'true'");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);

DELETE

To delete updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "DELETE FROM ItemListing WHERE ItemId = 'Jq74mCczmFXk1tC10GB'");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);
