    Which version of Access to learn and develop in ?

    ODBC connection to SQL

    Solved the problem. I was passing a boolean variable to the funcion, the INSERT INTO query was falling over because of this, however the access querry was happy with it (go figure). I converted the boolean to 1 or 0 and the function is now working perfectly. Thanks
