I am trying to write a basic dlookup expression in a query. The lookup will look at

<code>
=DLookUp("[GARAGING ZIP / POSTAL CODE]","[tbl Idle Vehicles]",[GARAGING ZIP / POSTAL CODE]=[zip_code],[tbl Zip Code Data])
<code/>

In the query it will look in [tbl Idle Vehicles] in column [GARAGING ZIP / POSTAL CODE] to match what's in [tbl Zip Code Data] in column [zip_code].
This seems to be an easy lookup but I can't get this work. I have syntax errors every time I save it. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
Hi, you might have to provide some sample data. It isn't clear what you are trying to do, although I can verify that the syntax looks bad.
