I am attempting to execute a stored QueryDef within an Access database from an external VB-like application through Automation. I can verify that I can access the named QueryDef, but I'm also confused by the Execute method within QueryDef objects which doesn't appear to return anything. Likewise, when I find no string associated with the SQL property, yet I can execute the Design View query (named QueryDef) and display results. How can I access the values displayed? Thanks

Assign the results of the execution to a Recordset using the QueryDef's
OpenRecordset method, rather than using the Execute method. Execute is only
meant for Action queries (INSERT INTO, UPDATE, DELETE)
