VBA: Querying Access with Excel. Why so slow?

Question

I found this code online to query Access and input the data into excel (2003), but it is much slower than it should be:

Sub DataPull(SQLQuery, CellPaste)
Dim         


        

Answer 1

I'm no expert, but I run almost exactly the same code with good results. One difference is that I use the Command object as well as the Connection object. Where you

Set RST = Con.Execute(SQLQuery)

I

Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
Set cmd.ActiveConnection = con
cmd.CommandText = SQLQuery
Set RST = cmd.Execute

I don't know if or why that might help, but maybe it will? :-)
