Does anyone have any suggestions on following macro coding?

[Working]
With Sheets("Temp").QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?macro",
Destination:=Sheets("Temp").Range("$A$1"))

[Not working]
myVariable = "http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?macro"
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;" & myVariable, _
Destination:=sheets("Temp").Range("A1"))

It seems to me that
"URL;" & myVariable is not equal to
"URL;http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?macro".

Do anyone have any suggestions on how to solve it?
Thank you very much for any suggestions
Eric
