That did the trick Tom.........THANKS HEAPS!!!!! Like you said, there was a
couple of space probs but nothing serious........actually, I wound up just
copying and pasting the "good stuff" out of your post into my recorded macro
and it started working good. That was only a sample Query I made here at
home in my post because I don't have access to the SQL Server from here,
I'll try it on the real one tomorrow, but I don't expect any problems.

Once again, thanking you most kindly........

This may have a space problem or two, so check it closely, but it should
be
close:

Sub query2()
Dim DT1 As String, DT2 as String

DT1 = Format(Range("B9").Value, _
"YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00")

DT2 = Format(Range("B10").Value, _
"YYYY-MM-DD 00:00:00")

With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
Array(Array("ODBC;DSN=MS Access " & _
"97 Database;" & _
"DBQ=g:\#Train\OldAccess" & _
"Program_Keep\SecureMatrix.mdb;" & _
"DefaultDir=g:\#Train\OldAccess" & _
"Program_Keep;Driv"), _
Array("erId=281;FIL=MSAccess;Max" & _
"BufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;")), _
Destination:=Range("A1"))
.Sql = Array( _
"SELECT Level2bucketblank.Name, " & _
"Level2bucketblank.Process," & _
"Level2bucketblank.Date" & _
Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "FROM " & _
"`g:\#Train\OldAccessProgram_Keep\Secure " & _
"Matrix`.Level2bucketblank Level2bucketblank" & _
Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & _
"WHERE (Level2bucketblank.Dat", _
"e={ts '" & dt1 & "'} And " & _
"Level2bucketblank.Date<={ts '" & DT2 & _
"'})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & _
"ORDER BY Level2bucketblank.Name")
.FieldNames = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells

usually you can just stop with " & range("a1") & " continue

Hi All........
I have this macro which runs a Query.........It works fine, except
the
begin
date of 1/1/2006 and the end date of 3/1/2006 are hard-coded within
the
macro. I would like to be able to get Begin and End dates from
Cells
E4
and
E5 respectively. I've tried all sorts of re-configurations of the
DateGroups but am just blundering along and haven't found the right
combination...........if someone would be so kind as to show me how
to
change the macro to do this, I would be appreciative.

Sub query2()
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=Array(Arra y( _
"ODBC;DSN=MS Access 97
Database;DBQ=g:\#Train\OldAccessProgram_Keep\Secur e
Matrix.mdb;DefaultDir=g:\#Train\OldAccessProgram_K eep;Driv" _
), Array("erId=281;FIL=MS
Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;")), _
Destination:=Range("A1"))
.Sql = Array( _
"SELECT Level2bucketblank.Name, Level2bucketblank.Process,
Level2bucketblank.Date" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "FROM
`g:\#Train\OldAccessProgram_Keep\Secure Matrix`.Level2bucketblank
Level2bucketblank" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "WHERE
(Level2bucketblank.Dat"

"e={ts '2006-01-01 00:00:00'} And
Level2bucketblank.Date<={ts
'2006-03-01 00:00:00'})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "ORDER BY
Level2bucketblank.Name" _
