insert and update data from basic

Hi,

I'm trying to find a hopefully small solution for writing data to a
registered data source. I've tried with basic by getting a connection
and creating a statement from the values to write, but this is a tedious
task because the formatting of values (dot vs. comma) and date/time
values has to be done manually.

Another approach might be to create a temporary query object or using a
record set directly. But with a query I found no way to hand over the
data by putting it to parameters...

Can someone please push me in the right direction for achieving my goal
and not reinventing the sdb[c[x]] layers?

TIA,
Marc
