I have developed an Access 2016 application with an insert query from VBA.
This insert query is reliant on a select query for input.
The functionality works correctly on my pc, but the select query generates additional output fields not included in the query which causes the insert to fail due to a mismatch in columns between the insert table and query result,
Can this be a bug?
Please assist.

To more correctly state the issue...
The functionality works correctly on my Dev PC, but the issue occurs when running the program on another PC, i.e. generates additional output fields.

@Gertdj How about posting the query?

Yes, Windows 10, Office 365

strSql2 = "INSERT INTO tbl_PayRun ( PerId, PayDate, HoursWorked, KmTravelled, HourlyRate, TravelRatePerKm, TotalWorked, TotalKmTravelled, TravelCostAmount, TotalEarnings, TaxRate, Tax, UIFEmployee, UIFEmployer, TotalDeductions, NettPay )" & vbCrLf & _

@Gertdj It could be strPayDate. It should be formatted like:
strPayDate = "#" & Format(PayDate, "yyyy\/mm\/dd") & "#"

@Gustav_Brock Thank you - I will try that, but want to state again that the code works perfectly on two pc's and is only producing extra output fields on the third...
Feb 26 2020 05:26 AM
@Gertdj And which are those additional fields?
Feb 26 2020 05:29 AM
@Gustav_Brock - Expr1 and Expr2 - both with a value of 48 that is not anywhere in my dataset

Solution@Gertdj And where are the positioned? It could be decimals normally having a dot, now a comma as the decimal separator. Always convert decimals to text with Str:
TextValue = Str(DecimalValue)

@Gustav_Brock - Thank you! That makes sense - I will check it out tonight and let you know asap.

@Gustav_Brock - I have checked the system settings on the PC that was misbehaving and found that the decimal separator was indeed set to a comma. After changing this to dot all is working as expected!
Thank you for the excellent advise!
