Martin,

I suppose you're using ADO instead of ADO.NET because of existing code that you had in an old VB6 app, correct? Do you plan to port that to ADO.NET at some point?

Anyway, I bet your problem is the extra quotes around your last parameter. Why don't you try this:

rs=cn.Execute("_1001 '09/01/2004', '09/30/2004, '341-111-01'")
