[RESOLVED] what to do if table head contains bracket

I have a table with one field name "Time (Date + Hour)". Now when I write the code

Code:

---

strSQL = "SELECT [Time (Date + Hour)] FROM tblName"
    rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient
    rs.Open strSQL, con, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
    MsgBox rs(Time (Date + Hour))

---

It shows error code. How can I read the value then?

SELECT `Time (Date + Hour)` FROM tblName

Does this work? Or is the problem with the msgbox?

You can always rename the name of the field returned to not contain spaces or brackets.

SELECT [Time (Date + Hour)] AS Time FROM tblName

something like that...

I dont have any problem with SQL. It works fine. But when i want to get values from recordset, Like rs(Time (Date + Hour)), then the problem arises.

And, I can't change the field name, because of some regulation.

The first line
strSQL = "SELECT [Time (Date + Hour)] FROM tblName"
is Ok.
The problem is in line
MsgBox rs(Time (Date + Hour))
It should be:
MsgBox rs![Time (Date + Hour)]
or
MsgBox rs("Time (Date + Hour)")

thanx a lot .. So fool of me! .. I should try that before.. Now I'll try

But it

Code:

---

MsgBox rs![Time (Date + Hour)]

---

does not work !!!!!!!!!!!!

Try to learn the syntax yourself and you will know what you have to do when the field name contains spaces and orther non-alphanumeric character.

sorry pal, thought that as I had the opportunity to ask the vb wizards, it may save my time, becoz I am new and really in hurry. Anyway, thanx 4 all ur help. Btw, my problem is solved.
