How to use ADO to issue query that more than 250 characters?

[Ai_Jun_Zhang]

Hi!

I am using ADO to retrieve data from ACCESS DB. However, my sql is mor
than 250 characters long but the .commandText field in ADODB.Command ca
only take 250 characters. My question is: with use of ADO, how can
issue query that is longer than 250 characters long?

Please help me with this.

Thanks,

Aijun

write a query in Access then just execute the query from your ADO

I just executed a Command with a CommandText that was 412 characters long.

Dick and Patrick,

Thank you very much for let me know that the limitation for .Commantext
is not 250 characters. It works now.
