Access Queries from Excel Sometimes Returning Blanks

Hi everyone,

This my first post, been lurking for some time and I should say thank you very much, you are all much smarter than I am.

So now on to the question:

I am running an access query in our access database that query's the sales of several items for several accounts, within a specific period of time (determined by starting date and end date) for testing purposes and because i'm frustrated i have set this as 01/01/2010 - 31/12/2011.

it runs this query twice (usually the dates are for one period and then another) and then totals the sales for comparison purposes.

The unique account numbers are put into one sheet and the unique item numbers another sheet.

The access query then runs based on these sheets.

The problem is:

When I loop the code multiple times there are some that return 0(blank access return). However if i run this specific instance by itself it returns the correct results.

Also if i run it multiple times and then pause the code right before and after it runs the query and instead manually enter the query into excel it returns the correct information as well.

I will post my code bellow:

Code:
Sub MultipleQuery()

Dim RefNum As Double
Dim Count As Long
Dim CustNum As Long
Dim ItemNum As String
Dim CatNum As Long
Dim PromoDate1 As Date
Dim PromoDate2 As Date
Dim BuyInDate1 As Date
Dim BuyInDate2 As Date
Dim UseDate1 As Date
Dim UseDate2 As Date
Dim PromoType As String
Dim x As Long
Dim TotalRepCost As Long
Dim TotalSupplierCost As Long
Dim MCB As Long
Dim TotalSupplyCost As Long
Dim DemoPerson As String
Dim BottomRng As Range
Dim CustName As String
Dim BuyInCheck As Boolean
Dim OkCancel As Long
Dim DivideBy As Long
Dim PromoLength As Long
Dim Highlight As Range
Dim TotalPromoSales1 As Currency
Dim TotalPromoSales2 As Currency
Dim TotalPromoCost1 As Currency
Dim TotalPromoCost2 As Currency
Dim TotalPromoCount1 As Currency
Dim TotalPromoCount2 As Currency
Dim QueryCountTotal As Long
Dim QueryCount As Long
Dim RepID As String
Dim RepName As String
Dim PctDone As Currency
Dim ItemCombine As String
Dim CustCombine As String
Dim xLoopCount As Long
Dim y As Long

The date code can almost completely be ignored since it's not really being called again during testing purposes


Also I am sure the item and cust codes are correctly being place in their respective sheets I know it's a little hard to know just looking at code.

Thanks

If anyone can help that would be much appreciate I've been banging my head against the wall for some time.

Even if you just post that you don't know what the problem is it will make me feel at least a little better.


Thanks all

James

I have figured out what the issue is.

It appears that one of the linked table in access is not updating since I eliminated all the other variables and I am getting the same result now.

Is there a way to refresh linked access tables from excel?
