Sub SqlUpdate()
Dim rst As New Recordset
Dim SQLcmd As String

SQLcmd = "Insert into myTable (Field1,Field2) values('Value1','Value2')"
''"Update myTable values('Value1','Value2') where PrimaryKey =
'ID'"

rst.Open Source:=SQLcmd, ActiveConnection:="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data
Source=Your_Server_Name;Initial Catalog=
Your_Database_Name;UserId=Your_Username;Password=Y our_Password;"

End Sub
