Hi guys,

I am working on Excel 2007 macros. My requirement is to access MS SQL 
server DB from excel, using VBA. I am just trying to pull some data by 
connecting to DB, but facing this issue: 'Facing 'run-time error 
-2147217871 (80040e31) Automation error' in excel VBA'

Below is the chunk of code I am using:

Dim objMyConn
Set objMyConn = New ADODB.Connection
Dim objMyRecordset As New Recordset
Set objMyRecordset = New ADODB.Recordset
Dim strConnectionString As String
Dim strSQL As String

strConnectionString = "{connectionStringDetails}"


strSQL = "select top 10 * from {table name} where server = '{columnName}' 
order by 1 desc"

objMyConn.Open strConnectionString

objMyRecordset.Open strSQL, objMyConn

ActiveSheet.Range("A4").CopyFromRecordset objMyRecordset

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
