Problem: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Regions="Chicago" And Activity Ranking="1"'

It seemed to work fine when I had it just Regions but for a combination, I am unable to get it to work

Thank you!
 
Have you tried debugging it and seeing what SQL statement your string is
creating?

If you place a break point just after the point where the string is created
and then in the immediate window type:
? strWhere this will show you what SQL you are passing

Looking at this quickly it looks like you are using strLink before you have
actually said what strLink is equal to .. .

Try somthing like: (untested)

strLink = " And "
strWhere = "Regions = '" & cmbRegions & "'" 'This is a single and
double quotes and then double, single, double quotes

blah blah

strWhere = strWhere & strLink & ActivityRanking = '" & cmbActivity & "'"

If you're going to use blanks or other funky characters in
names, then you must enclose the name in square brackets:

strWhere = strWhere & strLink & "[Activity Ranking]=""" &
CmbActivity & """"
