Question : VB program connecting to Access DB - arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.

Hello experts,

I am learning how to write a program in Visual Studio 2008, using visual basic .net and ADO (referencing Microsoft Active X Data Objects 2.8 Library).

Using the code below, it fails at the line where I set a recordset's .source value to a sql string (see code below)

The error I'm getting is " arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.

Pls advise if you can see the issue here.   Thanks in advance!
