Hello,

I am currently changing the Access queries in my
database to SQL Server Pass-through queries with view
to speeding up my application, by-passing the Jet engine.

I have been creating pass-through queries in Access
and linking this to my SQL Server.

I now need to convert some of the Access Queries
with in-parameters from Access forms. I'm not sure
how to do this and can only think that on a click event
I call [Event Proceedure] and code my ADO SQL Query.

I have previously used such code as the following to
use in-parameters from a form and feed back information
to a form. Would I need to do the same for all queries
selecting data for display on a form or is there an
easier way? Like creating a stored procedure to receive
values from an Access form? Not sure how?

Thank you kindly for any ideas you may have.
Rhonda

Here is a snippet of code I use to run parameterized SP in SQL 2000 from
Access XP - looks like it is similar to what you have already . . .

Dim cnMIS As ADODB.Connection
Dim cmdPickList As ADODB.Command
Dim rsPickList As ADODB.Recordset
Dim params As ADODB.Parameters
Dim param As ADODB.Parameter

All the set statements . . .etc etc
..
..
With cmdPickList
Set .ActiveConnection = cnMIS
.CommandText = "PickList" :---name of SP
.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
Set params = .Parameters
End With

' Define stored procedure params and append to command.
params.Append cmdPickList.CreateParameter("@RETURN_VALUE", adInteger,
adParamReturnValue, 0)
params.Append cmdPickList.CreateParameter("@DateTo", adDBDate, adParamInput,
0)
params.Append cmdPickList.CreateParameter("@Customer", adChar, adParamInput,
7)
params.Append cmdPickList.CreateParameter("@Route", adVarChar, adParamInput,
15)
params.Append cmdPickList.CreateParameter("@OrderNo", adVarChar,
adParamInput, 8)


' Specify input parameter values
params("@DateTo") = mDateTo
params("@Customer") = mCustomer
params("@Route") = mRoute
params("@OrderNo") = morderno


' Execute the command
Set rsPickList = cmdPickList.Execute
