Hi Mike,

One thing you can check is that in each spreadsheet in which you are using
the code, the correct Library has been refernced for using ADODB. If you have
copied modules or code from one spreadsheet to the next then the copied
versions will not have the relevant references. In the VBE goto Tools
References and make sure one of the Microsoft ActiveX Data Object libraries,
or equivalent, is being referenced.

I imagine that is the problem.

Hope this helps,

Sean.

I am trying these commands:
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection, rs As ADODB.Recordset
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; " & "Data Source=" &
DataS
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open "Transfers", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic,
adCmdTable
Sometimes It works and in another module on another spreadsheet, I get a
compile error: User-Defined Type not Defined and it highlights the cn As
ADODB.Connection on the first line. Why do I get two different situations.
I think my code is pretty much the same otherwise. I did the one that works
several months ago and the new code just today and I can't find any
difference! Ideas?
