SYMPTOMS
When you preview a page that contains a database region, you may see the following error message in the Web browser:

Database Error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access 97 Driver] Too few parameters. Expected 1.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs when the field name you specified in your SELECT statement does not exist in the database being queried. Most often this happens if you have mistyped the query.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, you must specify the correct field name in your SELECT statement. To do this, follow these steps:  Determine the correct field name in your database.

 Start Microsoft Access and open your database. Select the table you are querying and then click Design View. Note the name of the field you would like to query. The field name appears in the Field Name column. On the File menu, click Exit. </li> Start FrontPage Editor and open the page that contains the database region.</li> Right-click any column value in the database region and then click Database Region Properties on the menu that appears.</li> In the SELECT statement, type the name of the field you noted in step 1 For example, if the field name is Field1, type your query like this:

SELECT Field1 from TABLE

NOTE: Your query may be different depending on the name of your table and the number of fields you are querying.</li> Click Finish.</li> On the File menu, click Save.</li></ol>
