ApplyFilter in Macro.

S

Office XP Pro with SP3 applied.

Database 'ControlData' has a field labeled 'Zone'

Query ZoneQuerry extracts data from ControlData and selects fields for
use in another program, OziExplorer.

I would like to maintain a macro that would run ZoneQuery for each
possible value of Zone, and produce Zone-A.txt, Zone-B.txt ...

I'm not a VBA programmer.

I tried this in a macro:

OpenQuery ZoneQuery
ApplyFilter ZoneQuery Zone="A"
TransferText ZoneQuery Export-Delimited, ...

ApplyFilter ZoneQuery Zone='B'
....

The query part works. I can get a 1 second view of each appropriate
data chunk.
But transfertext doesn't seem to pay attention to the previously
applied filter, but
runs the query separately, so that I end up with the entire contents
duplicated in each
text file.

Is there a way to get transfer text to work with the currently opened
database with currently applied filter?
