Select Statement Problems

55 New Member
I have a datasheet form that on opening I want to select only the records whose Decision field value is "Recommend" . I have the following SQL statement so far but it gives me the "cannot execute select query" error.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. strSQL = "SELECT IdentityNumber, Ministry, Surname, Designation, QualificationCategory, Qualification, SubmissionDate" _
  2.         & " FROM [Submission Details]" _
  3.         & " WHERE [Decision] = 'Recommend';"
  4.     dbs.Execute (strSQL)
  5.     Debug.Print strSQL
  6.  
All fields are strings.

Hello, Lebbsy.

"Execute" method is for executing action queries (update, delete, append etc). There is nothing to "execute" in SELECT statement.
If you want to populate your form with records fetched by SELECT statement, then assign your strSQL variable value to Form.RecordSour ce property.

Regards,
Fish

Using "SELECT * " is a bad practice even when using a VIEW instead of a table? I have some stored procedures that are identical with the difference of one statement in the WHERE clause. If I create a single View and specify also in this View the WHERE clause that is common in these stored procedures, I will have the new stored procecures changed to be like:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
