Writing VBA code to run SQL query with ADODB connection and getting Run-time error 3709

Tags: Microsoft, Excel, 2002, VBA, Run time error 3709, Run-time error 3709: The connection cannot be used to perform this operation.  It is either closed or invalid in this context
I'm a little new to running queries via Excel and am getting the above error but can't figure out why.  I'm trying to run an Access query via Excel VBA, the query runs ok in Access.

Thanks so much.
