MS Query 'Invalid pseudocolum "$D$5"
I am trying to use a cell in my spread sheet as a parameter in MS Query.
(Select data from table where field = "value in Excel cell".) Does anyone know the proper syntax to do so. I get an invalid pseudocolumn error so I am thinking there must be a 'valid' pseudocolum method. Thanks. |

MS Query 'Invalid pseudocolum "$D$5"
When you create you query in MSQuery, after building the SQL, change the
desired value to ? Then when you return to Excel, right-click on the query and you the Parameters option will be available. Enter info there as required. NickHK "Johnslg" wrote in message ...

MS Query 'Invalid pseudocolum "$D$5"
I've tried the ? thing and am told that "parameters are not allowed in
queries that are too complex to be graphically displayed". :-( "NickHK" wrote: When you create you query in MSQuery, after building the SQL, change the desired value to ?

I guess you have reached the limitations of MSQuery and should changed
something like ADO. NickHK "Johnslg" wrote in message ...
