Hi,
i'm trying to build a parameter in VBA as a list stings to pass it to
MSAccess procedure such as
"select ...from ...WHERE Strategy in ([@Strategy_List]);"

but I'm having problem with quotation marks around each string in a
list.. if only one name is in the list then query works just find but
additing second string to the list breaks it...


Set ParamStrategy = .CreateParameter("@Strategy_List", adVariant,
adParamInput)
'this one will work as only one string in the list
ParamStrategy.Value = "ALL_STRT"
param with two strings fails
'ParamStrategy.Value = "" & """ALL_G""" & "," & """ALL_O""" & ""

would appreciate any help on it
cheers
D.

Tom, thank U for the response but the problem mentioned in the posting
(through the link U provided) is different from mine: i'm sending one
parameter which contains a list of strings (not a list of parameters)
but in the example from your link is an attempt to append parameter to
another parameter ...
well, at least as I'm interpreting my issue..
cheers

Sounds to me like you either need a single string that has a list of comma
separated words in it

"red,blue,green"

or you need an array (if the parameter will accept an array).
