Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'
Invalid use of '.', '!', or '()'. in query expression 'maillist."Last name"'.
/rsfsurv/rsf.asp, line 191
I'm new to this part of asp. Unfortunately the database is too complex to get rid of the spaces in the names - it seems to me that is where the problem lies, and I assume I'm using the wrong method to overcome them. Any insights greatly appreciated. Below is the part of the code I assume is relevant.
line 191 refers to :rsAddComments.Open strSQL, adoCon
Thanks
