Question : Example SQL Select Statement VBA Code

I've been trying to compose a VBA Select Statement in Code in Access 2007 without Success. I have been trying very simple queries and from all of online examples, It's always either complaining of a variable I have set incorrectly or something I do not have decalred. Can someone post an example of a way to write a VBA select Statement to return data from a table and display it in message box?

Example Concept:
Dim vFirstName as String
Select tblName.FirstName from tblContactNames WHERE vFirstName
MsgBox ("First name is " + vFirstName)

I"m new to VBA and Access and an old school C++ programmer, so I'm starting out.

Your help is appreciated!!

Code Snippet:

         
             I've tried this code:
 
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim intResult As Integer
Dim strSQL As String
 
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblContactInfo WHERE tblContactInfo.FirstName = Michelle"
Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenSnapshot)
 
'intResult = rs("RecordCount")
rs.Close
db.Close

Open in New Window

Select All

For some odd reason it's named Last Name so when I change the code to show:
strLastName = rs!Last Name

it's throwing a Synax Error (doesn't like the space) is there a way to declare the filed with the space in the name?
