How to run an SQL Insert statement in a Module using variables

Sub adddate()

Dim dtestart As Date, dteend As Date, dterun As Date, intcount As Integer, intperiods As Integer
Dim Period As Integer, vYear As Integer, vName As String
Dim strnum As String
intcount = 1
intperiods = 13
dtestart = #4/1/2004# 'US date format
vName = "BOPSWSOR"
vYear = 2004


If 13 / 4 > Int(13 / 4) Then

strnum = Int(13 / 4) + 1

Else

strnum = Int(13 / 4)

End If


Do While intcount <= intperiods

dteend = DateAdd("d", 28, dtestart)
dterun = DateAdd("d", 2, dteend)

If intperiods = 13 Then
Period = intcount
Else
Period = intcount / 4
End If



DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into kevfeeder ([Name], [Rundate], [Year], [Period], [startdate], [enddate]) values (vName, dterun, vYear, Period, dtestart, dteend)"


intcount = intcount + 1
dtestart = DateAdd("d", -1, dteend)


Loop

End Sub


I am being prompted to enter values for the variables although they are declared and assigned. I am a newbie. Sorry if this is a bit basic

Something like thisL

DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into kevfeeder ([Name], [Rundate], [Year], [Period],
[startdate], [enddate]) values ('" & vName & "', #" & dterun & "#, " & vYear
& ", " &Period & ", #" & dtestart & "#, #" & dteend & "#)"

String and date values need to be delimited. Strings with an apostrophe (')
and dates with a pound sign (#). Number like integers do not need
additional delimiters. Strings that hold names can be a particular problem,
because they can have apostrophes in them. This will cause problems, so you
can replace the apostrophe with TWO quote marks, like this:

DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into kevfeeder ([Name], [Rundate], [Year], [Period],
[startdate], [enddate]) values (""" & vName & """, #" & dterun & "#, " &
vYear & ", " &Period & ", #" & dtestart & "#, #" & dteend & "#)"

However, I would suggest building a string variable to hold the Insert
Statement. Then you can use Debug.Print to see what is being evaluated.
Like this:

strSQL = "insert into kevfeeder ([Name], [Rundate], [Year], [Period],
[startdate], [enddate]) values (""" & vName & """, #" & dterun & "#, " &
vYear & ", " &Period & ", #" & dtestart & "#, #" & dteend & "#)"

I just ran into a problem when trying to use the ADODB.Command to insert
multiple rows. The function runs but does not do the insert or return any
error message. I change the function to use the DoCMD.RunSQL and it works
with no change in the SQL statement.

Any Ideas?

Thank you. That works fine
