    How can I create and see the results of a SELECT query in VBA?

    Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to look. I was beginning to think I had got the hang of creating queries on the fly in VBA. After several hours I have just learned that docmd.runSQL does not work for simple SELECT statements. I'm not going to worry about why that would be. I'm sure...
