Thread: Query another Query to get a line total.

I'm having trouble finding a solution to querying a query using VBA. When I run this code it gives me an error that access cannot find the table or query 'sql'. It gives the same error when I try SQLQuery instead. Do I have to declare something differently to reference a query like this later on? I would really appreciate any help anyone can give me.
