hi,
if your are using microsoft query (MSQ), the can set up a parameter query
that prompts you for the criteria.
how?
click somewhere inside the returned data.
dataimport external dataparameters.
check "prompt for value using the following string"
in the box below, enter your promp ie "enter somthing" or whateverclick ok.
refresh the MSQ. a little parameter box will pop up prompting for search
criteria.
you can also do this by editing the MSQ direct but this is a tad more
complicated.
if your are not using MSQ, what method are you using?

.CommandType = xlCmdTable
.CommandText = Array("invoice")
.Name = "invoice"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
