Hi again Thomas

Probably the issue is not in orgtbl-to-sqlinsert,
because orgtbl-to-sqlinsert does not receive the header of the table.
Here is another fix which just recovers the lost header and passes it to
orgtbl-to-sqlinsert:

---8<----------------------->8---
*** Experiment with orgtbl-sqlinsert

#+name: test-table
| one | two    |
|-----+--------|
|   1 | Buckle |
|   2 | Shoe   |
|   3 | Open   |
|   4 | Door   |

#+name: test-bed
#+header: :var x=test-table
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'orgtbl-sqlinsert)
(orgtbl-to-sqlinsert
   (cons (cdadr (assoc :colname-names params)) (cons 'hline x))
  '(:sqlname "foo" :fmt (1 "%s")))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS: test-bed
: BEGIN TRANSACTION;
: INSERT INTO foo( one, two ) VALUES ( 1 , 'Buckle' );
: INSERT INTO foo( one, two ) VALUES ( 2 , 'Shoe' );
: INSERT INTO foo( one, two ) VALUES ( 3 , 'Open' );
: INSERT INTO foo( one, two ) VALUES ( 4 , 'Door' );
: COMMIT;
---8<----------------------->8---
