multiple rows insert

[qasmi]

I am inserting multiple rows in access database via asp. I wrote a script which actually insert multiple rows but that only works with traditional recordset format. I need to make it working with the dreamweaver insert behaviour. my problem is when i change values of the MM_fieldStr row. I need 'selectDepartments|value' changed to a variable 'k'. how can i change this and in working condition. Any ideas....

MM_fieldsStr = "txtValues|value|selectDepartments|value"

All code is below :

here is a DELETE version of it:

http://www.drdev.net/article02.asp

just apply INSERT command....YES it HAS to be a command that whole "builtin" insert record behavior will not fly and even if u loop it so it does .....it will generate so much code that u don't really need.
that my advise....I dont know how bady u need to stick with MM_stuff
All the best!
