Try putting single quotes around the strings:
$Query = "INSERT INTO table_name (Obj,Descrip) VALUES ('keyboard','Device
to pound on when frustrated.')";
Another thing that would be useful is to use the mysql_error() function in your die,
which will give a better indication of the problem

New to this, trying to insert record into DB
$Query = "INSERT INTO table_name (Obj,Descrip) VALUES (keyboard,Device
to pound on when frustrated.)";
$Results = mysql_query($Query)
or die ("Query FAILED");
I keep getting Failed Query messages here, any idea why? PHP/MySQL
manuals do not have examples of how to do this. Thanks.
