Apart from what John Machin has said, your SQL also looks like it's
half trying to be an insert with a subselect clause (looking at the
'where') rather than a values clause. Access might well be expecting a
semicolon after the values statement, as the where might be starting
another. Don't have mxODBC, so it's all untested - Just an idea.
Jon.
