DoCmd.transferspreadsheet
Ben
when I do a DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet....
where I provide the query. When I open the spreadsheet, the tab
inherits the name of the query I used. Is there any way to specify a
name of the tab instead of letting Access to use the query name?
Thanks,
Ben

Either change the name of the query or copy it to the name you want before
exporting (then delete it afterwards maybe).
Ben
Thanks, I was hoping Access might have a mechanism to facilitate this,
guess not. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
