Hi,

I am trying to run an MS Access queries from Excel but when I try to run the from Excel, it always asks for a password. I would like to remove the prompts / embed credentials so macro would run without any interruptions.

Thanks in advance!

AQuery is an Append Query that goes to ATable

Rich (BB code):
Dim db As ADODB.Connection Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command Dim dbPath As String Dim AQuery As String Dim ATable As String Dim WS As Worksheet ThisTemplate = ThisWorkbook.Name dbPath = Range("G10") AQuery = Range("G11") ATable = Range("G12") 'RunQuery Set db = New ADODB.Connection db.Open "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" & dbPath & ";" cmd.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc cmd.CommandText = AQuery cmd.ActiveConnection = db db.Execute "DELETE * FROM " & ATable, FailonError db.Execute AQuery, FailonError 'Macro stops here and asks for ODBC Oracle Driver Connect Credentials
