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

Procedure for Updates

INSERT

To insert updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "INSERT INTO Account (Name) VALUES ('Floppy Disks')");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);

DELETE

To delete updates:

$result = odbc_exec($cnx, "DELETE FROM Account WHERE Id = '1'");
$affected = odbc_num_rows($result);
