Your missing the SET keyword in your query.

[code=php:0]
query = odbc_exec($odbc, "UPDATE task SET act_end_date ='$act_date',complete = $complete,remark = '$remark'  WHERE title = '$title'") or die ("Wrong data");
[/code]
[/quote]

I have tried with the SET also but it didn't update the table why?? is it getting data from other files??
