expression.CommandText
expression An expression that returns a QueryTable object.
For OLE DB sources, the CommandType property describes the value of the CommandText property.
For ODBC sources, setting the CommandText causes the data to be refreshed.
If you import data by using the user interface, data from a web query or a text query is imported as a QueryTable object, while all other external data is imported as a ListObject object.
If you import data by using the object model, data from a web query or a text query must be imported as a QueryTable, while all other external data can be imported as either a ListObject or a QueryTable.
Use the QueryTable property of the ListObject to access the CommandText property.
The sheet that contains the query table must be active to access this property.
This example sets the command string for the first query table's ODBC data source. Note that the command string is an SQL statement.
