[AccessD] ADO Problem

Using:

"SELECT #" & dtToday & "#"

He gets an error message: 

Invalid column name '#11'

dtToaday does contain 11/28/2006

What else could it be?

Hi, Rocky.  

Just a WAG (I don't know ADO), but how 'bout:

   Conn.Execute "INSERT INTO tWeeklyUpdateSent ( DateSent ) " & _
                 "SELECT #" & dtToday & "#;"

Dear List:

A colleague (who thinks I know ADO) writes in to ask why the following:

   Conn.Execute "INSERT INTO tWeeklyUpdateSent ( DateSent ) " & _
                 "SELECT " & dtToday & ""

Inserts a record into tWeeklyUpdateSent so the conection is OK.  But but the
date is 1/1/1900 instead of today's date.

I had him check the contents of dtToday and it does indeed have 11/28/2006
in it.

Does anyone see what he's doing wrong here?
