if(addStmt == nil) {
const char *sql = "insert into tbl_Users(FirstName,MiddleName) Values(?,?)";
if(sqlite3_prepare_v2(database, sql, -1, &addStmt, NULL) != SQLITE_OK)
NSAssert1(0, @"Error while creating add statement. '%s'", sqlite3_errmsg(database));
}
sqlite3_bind_text(addStmt, 1, [strFirstName UTF8String], -1, SQLITE_TRANSIENT);
sqlite3_bind_text(addStmt, 2, [strMiddleName UTF8String], -1, SQLITE_TRANSIENT);
//sqlite3_bind_text(addStmt, 3, [strLogin UTF8String], -3, SQLITE_TRANSIENT);
if(SQLITE_DONE != sqlite3_step(addStmt))
NSAssert1(0, @"Error while inserting data. '%s'", sqlite3_errmsg(database));

//SQLite provides a method to get the last primary key inserted by using sqlite3_last_insert_rowid
//productID = sqlite3_last_insert_rowid(database);
//Reset the add statement.
sqlite3_reset(addStmt);
