You're going to have to be a lot more specific than that if you want
to get a coherent answer.
Please provide some source code (as small as you can make it to still
illustrate the problem) and a typical data set that causes the
problem.
(off hand I would guess that you are placing quotes in the insert()
statement where there shouldn't be any, or vice-versa...)
