Mdb View Syntax Error Clause

Uncategorized on January 6, 2006. The company for whom I now work buys some version of Microsoft Office that includes Powerpoint and Publisher, but not Access. I'd be more specific, but I don't really know what the versions of Office are. But no Access? I need to figure out a way to fix that!

Furthermore, I got the same error when I tried to manually enter this SQL statement: SELECT * FROM Categories I'm not quite sure how I figured this next one out, but the problem was fixed by manually entering (manually means in the SQL dialog box from within MS Query): SELECT * FROM [Categories] I wasn't able to avoid the error using any kind GUI - it had to be manually typed.

I just finished a project which had need for a SELECT * FROM table WHERE(((date)=#" & dateFromWrkSht & "#));" The date field in the Access table was formated "Short Date". The date from the worksheet was formatted "Short Date"; still the two were not compatable and would not recognize each other. I believe because Time is appended to the date in the worksheet.

Back to the top CAUSE This problem occurs if you attempt to retrieve data from a Microsoft Access or Microsoft Excel database, and the path to the database contains a period (.), for example: C:\My.Test\Northwind.mdb Back to the top WORKAROUND To work around this problem, change the path to the database so that it does not contain any periods, for example: C:\MyTest\Northwind.mdb C:\My Test\Northwind.mdb As I work on a network my filepath always has a "." between my first and surname ie R:/Joe.Bloggs/DB1 So I find a location on the network where there is not a ". "contained in the path and put it there but get same error So I put it on a memory stick and still the same error when I try to connect via the pivot table Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
