Query criteria based on a changing criteria list
 

I am trying to create a query that I can update that will return values based
on criteria from a list of values. Right now I have a range defined as
=OFFSET(RangeValues!$B$2,0,0,COUNT(RangeValues!$B: $B),1) that holds the
criteria I want to query by. I would like for the query to alter its
selection criteria based on what is keyed into column B of the €œRangeValues€�
worksheet. Hopefully the finished product would be for me to
add/delete/update values in column B, then run a macro (or refresh a query)
that will return data based on what is currently in column B.

I am connecting through an ODBC and can get the results I want if I copy and
paste the criteria values into the SQL each time they change, but I cant get
it to work based on a dynamic range of values.

I am open to try solutions in VBA or the Excel Query Builder, I'm desperate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
