Why not working?

The insert code seems to be well. But there is a mistake about presence of 'actors' table?

INSERT INTO actors VALUES ('Michael J.Fox');

Dimitry,

unless your table has only one field your insert statement is going to fail. Your are using the defaults. You need to specify the target fields. For example: INSERT INTO actors (FirstName, LastName, etc) VALUES('John', 'Doe', 'xxx');

Hope this helps,

Robert
