I looked into this problem a bit more, putting quotes around the name just
makes it an expression.
But you were right about the [] in access. That did the trick

More on the Zone
If I put quotes around the word "ZONE" then it works, but the fieldname in
the resulting dataset is "Expr1001"
Bit of a bummer, I think I am better off to change Zone to ZoneName..
Thanks for your help
Chris

Chris,

Zone is most probably a reserved word. To use reserved words as
identifiers, you need to quote them with "". I think Access will also allow
you to use []. Not quote sure what Zone does, as I don't use ADO/Access.
