the end Select function throws the folowing exception:

"...
An unhandled exception of
type 'System.Data.SyntaxErrorException' occurred in
system.data.dll

Additional information: Cannot interpret token '?' at
position 6.
....."

Well, you'll need something like the QuotePrefix and QuoteSuffix properties
of the CommandBuilder. I think you need brackets ([]) around your suspect
column heading names.
