问题
I am trying to figure out how to do multirow inserts using ADODB in VBA excel. My problem seems to be that i can`t figure out the correct syntax to use for this simple task, even after searching I am still lost as to why it does not work.
I have no problem doing a single insert using the statement
INSERT INTO test.dbf ('field1','field3') VALUES ('test1','test11')
But as soon as I try
INSERT INTO test.dbf ('field1','field3') VALUES ('test1','test11'), ('test2','test22')
It gives me the following error
[Microsoft][ODBC dBase Driver] Missing semicolon (;) at end of SQL statement.
I of course tried adding the semicolon at the end of the statement and it was no help at all, I also tried running the statement with out specifying the columns, all to no avail.
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? I would like to avoid doing 8,000 individual inserts.
Thanks in advance

The SQL syntax for multi-row inserts is newer than the ADODB/ODBC interfaces and so their SQL parsers do not recognize it. Consequently your choices are:
Use VBA to specify this as a pass-thru query. This should work so long as the DBMS you are executing in recognizes the new insert syntax. However, this has the significant downside that you are almost certainly exposing your database to injection if your insert content is based on user input. (Note: this has nothing to do with pass-thru, but rather with the fact that you are using string composition to do your inserts, rather than using the ADODB table objects).
Just use the VBA/ADODB table objects to insert multiple rows. This does not use the newer multi-row insert SQL syntax under-the-hood, but still works fine. The only reason to try to leverage the multi-row syntax is if you have a performance problem, and there are many other performance options available.
