ASP Access stored procedure doesn't accept leading zero

[Jeff Lowry]

I'm pasing a zip code as a prameter to an Access stored procedure. In
Access the parameter is a text data type. It works for non-leading zero
zip codes but, apparently access (or ASP) is converting it to a value
first (dropping the zero) then sending that to my SP. Even if I use
cStr() to be sure the parameter is sent a string it still seems to drop
the leading zero. Any thoughts? Note: It needs to be a string for
canadian zip codes. Thanks!

I had 2 parameters in my stored procedure. If I put the "text" one
before the "long" one then it worked. Can't argue with success.

You need to supply te parameters in the same order that Access prompts you
for them when you test the saved query in Access.
