I need to extract data from a csv file for a specific fund, i have the syntax
to do this by coding the fund name into the SQL string, but what is the SQL
statement syntax to use if you wish to use a variable to hold the fund name.
So instead of ....WHERE fund = 'XYZ'. i have tried WHERE fund= fundname.
Fundname being the variable holding the fund name. This produces an error.

I will be very grateful for any help in this

Spike,
Try:
"SELECT .... WHERE fund=" & Chr(34) & fundname & Chr(34)
