using
db.OpenRecordset(ABOVE_QUERY_HERE)

i always get "invalid operation" error!!!

all i need is to execute this query....in any possible way.....
Above query works perfectly when run in access xp/2002

i am not used to work on access.....more customed to MS sql 2000.....but GOD access is IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

any HELP plz :confused: :confused: :confused:

Access is far from impossible kind sir (Him or her offcourse ;))

Try doing db.execute instead.

Don't think that you can run an insert query as part of a recordset?!

Any time I do an insert I use the following syntax.

Dim strSQL as string

strsql = "insert into tblTableName values ('It', 'is', 'this', 'easy');"

DoCmd.RunSQL strsql

Access is far from impossible kind sir (Him or her offcourse ;))

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:


thanks for reply......

@Jibbadiah's soln worked.....

when i tried "db.execute", got Operation must use an updateable query error
