I would suggest copying the query in an sql editor and try to run it by replacing only the '?' with values.

After all that! All I had to do was put square brackets around date because it is a reserved word! I was ready to hit the computer ;-)

Thanks for your help guys

Read reply #5. I had already told you to change the name of the field, again (after having changed it from timestamp). You are much, much, much better off not using reserved words in table or column names. Even if there is a "workaround" to allow it. It is, at the very least, a very bad practice with nasty side-effects (as you have just seen).
