Victoria,

You can run a stored procedure using ADO, like below...

Set mobjConn = New ADODB.Connection
mobjConn.Open "your connection string"
Set mobjCmd = New ADODB.Command
With mobjCmd
    .ActiveConnection = mobjConn 
    .CommandText = "your stored procedure"
    .CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
    .CommandTimeout = 0
    .Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("your parameter name", adInteger, adParamInput, , your parameter value)
    ' repeat as many times as you have parameters

    .Execute
End With

To get your connection string, you can use the line

Debug.Print CurrentDb.TableDefs("tblInstrumentInterfaceLog").Connect

in the Immediate Window and that should show you a connection string which you can use.

Would you try that and let me know if you have any problems.
