Kurt,

You still need to create an instance of an ADO connection. So far, all you have done is declare a variable name. Add:

loConnection = CREATEOBJECT('ADODB.Conncection')

then, set up any other connection properties you might need.

David's suggestion has the same problem: LOCAL oConnection AS ADODB.Connection does not create an instance of the object, it types the variable so it can be used in IntelliSense. Made that same mistake myself :) HTH
