using the SQL view in code

[FRAZ]

How would I take the SQL statement generated by the query design, and place it directly in to code? I would like to get away from the "docmd.openquery" statement.
thanks

Copy/paste then edit as appropriate - enclose in quote marks, concatenate dynamic parameters, continuation character for multi-line code. Like:

CurrentDb.Execute "UPDATE tablename SET fieldname = " & Me.textboxname & _
" WHERE ID=" & Me.ID

This pertains only to action SQL. SELECT query only for opening a recordset object.

Thank will give it a try

If you google sql2vba it should show a link to allenbrowne.com. He has a form you can build, which can not only simplify the task, but will also show you the needed changes to go from Access SQL to vBA SQL layout.
