Else
Call MkDir("C:\My Lesson")
End If

If Dir(sDBPath, vbNormal) <> "" Then
Kill sDBPath

oRS.Open meSQL, oCN, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly, -1

If Not oRS.EOF Then
 Do Until oRS.EOF

  mymsg = mymsg & vbCrLf & "FIELD2 =" & Val(Trim(oRS.Fields("FIELD2").Value & ""))
  mymsg = mymsg & vbCrLf & "FIELD3 = " & Val(Trim(oRS.Fields("FIELD3").Value & ""))
  mymsg = mymsg & vbCrLf & "FIELD4 = " & Trim(oRS.Fields("FIELD4").Value & "")
  mymsg = mymsg & vbCrLf & "FIELD5 =" & Val(Trim(oRS.Fields("# FIELD5 #").Value & ""))
  'error in highlighted yello for field5 which happen to be for date format. please help
    MsgBox mymsg
   oRS.MoveNext
   Loop
 End If
oRS.Close

End Sub

Thank you.   

   
On which line of code do you get this error?

Have fun.

You got the answer somewhere else, but consider this:
And I would really try to name my fields something better than just Field1, Field2, ... (avoid using spaces - use _ instead, special characters, and reserved words like: Name, Time, Date, etc)  I know it is just the beginning, but if you get certain habits now, your life as a programmer later will be much easier.

Have fun.

hi Andy, error is INVALID or UNQUALIFIED REFERENCE for !FIELD5
mymsg = mymsg & vbCrLf & "FIELD5 =" & Val(Trim(!FIELD5.Value & ""))

This is probably not a date:
# 9 - 25 - 2003 #
There are 6 spaces too many and the format would be better as yyyy-mm-dd.
