In your query, you use the bang operator (!). This means to me that you have an open recordset.

What do you want to do? Do you have 2 tables and you want to copy from one to the other records that are not "CaseClosed" and are <> from a number?

In this case, you could this something like this:

cnn1.Execute "INSERT INTO DTCList(IndexNo, NRIC, CustName, DTCDate, Birthday, PrintDate) " & _
"SELECT IndexNo, NRIC, CustName, DTCDate, Birthday, Date() " & _
"FROM TableFromWhichYouWantToCopy " &
"WHERE IndexNo <> '" & Trim(!IndexNo) & "' AND CaseClosed"
