Updating Access Database using UPDATE SQL statement in VBA - sql

Question

Can someone take a look a the stSQL string and help me fix the syntax error I am getting associated with the UPDATE statement?
Run-time error '-2147217900 (8004e14)': Syntax error in UPDATE statement.
I have a rudimentary understanding of SQL and don't seem to understand where I have gone wrong.
I want to update the fields of Table 1 if the FileName UserForm value matches a FileName field in the Access Db.
Thanks
Public Sub UpdateDatabaseEntry()
Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim stDB As String, stSQL As String, stProvider As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim Nickname As String
Dim RecipientName As String
Dim RecipientRelationship As String
Dim Summary As String
Dim Noteworthy As String
Dim PreparedBy As String
FileName = UserForm1.FileNameTextBox.Text
Nickname = UserForm1.NicknameTextBox.Text
RecipientName = UserForm1.RecipientNameTextBox.Text
RecipientRelationship = UserForm1.RecipientRelationshipComboBox.Text
Summary = UserForm1.SummaryTextBox.Text
Noteworthy = UserForm1.NoteworthyCheckBox.Value
PreparedBy = UserForm1.PreparedByTextBox.Text
stDB = "Data Source= E:\MyDb.accdb"
stProvider = "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0"
//Opening connection to database
With cn
.ConnectionString = stDB
.Provider = stProvider
.Open
End With
//SQL Statement telling database what to do
stSQL = "UPDATE Table1" & _
"SET Nickname= '" & Nickname & "', RecipientName= '" & RecipientName & "', " & _
"RecipientRelationship= '" & RecipientRelationship & "', Summary= '" & Summary & "', " & _
"Noteworthy= '" & Noteworthy & "', PreparedBy= '" & PreparedBy & "', " & _
"WHERE FileName= '" & FileName & "'"
cn.Execute stSQL
cn.Close
Set rs = Nothing
Set cn = Nothing
End Sub

At least one problem is caused by lack of spaces in the query. So your query started UPDATE Table1set.
stSQL = "UPDATE Table1 " & _
"SET Nickname= '" & Nickname & "', RecipientName= '" & RecipientName & "', " & _
"RecipientRelationship= '" & RecipientRelationship & "', Summary= '" & Summary & "', " & _
"Noteworthy= '" & Noteworthy & "', PreparedBy= '" & PreparedBy & "'" & _
"WHERE FileName= '" & FileName & "'"
If this doesn't fix the problem. Then edit your question with the value of stSQL after the variable substitution.
EDIT:
As TS points out, another problem is the , before the where (fixed above).
