Ya, just do this:

Function GetInStr() as String
GetInStr="1,2,3,4"
End Function


That should work just fine....

Is it possible to return a comma delimited string using a function into the
where of a saved query when the Where is an IN.  Boy does that read
convoluted!

IOW,

IN ( GetInStr() )

where the GetInStr() function returns a comma delimited list of items to use
in the IN clause.

I have never succeeded in getting something like this working, and as a
result have had to build a query on-the-fly.
