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 TradingAccounts (Name) VALUES ('Smith')");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);

UPDATE

To retrieve updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "UPDATE TradingAccounts SET Name = 'Smith' WHERE TradingAccountUUID = 'c2ef66a5-a545-413b-9312-79a53caadbc4'");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);

DELETE

To delete updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "DELETE FROM TradingAccounts WHERE TradingAccountUUID = 'c2ef66a5-a545-413b-9312-79a53caadbc4'");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);
