You have an error in your SQL syntax

[dickreuter]

When trying to insert something into a table that contains only one column I get an error message. It works fine with all other tables but I don't find any reason why the following SQL query should not work:
Any help is appreciated

SQL query:

INSERT INTO inbox
SET FROM =1

FROM is a reserved word in SQL.

You can try using

INSERT INTO inbox SET `FROM` = 1;

instead, however I'd recommend that you rename the field in the table so that it's not a reserved word.

A list of mysql reserved words are here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/reserved-words.html
