If you are dealing with Memo fields from Access then you may find it best to create ADO objects directly. Here are nodes I wrote on these sometime in the distant past. They should provide a start point if you need it:

• Retrieving the last insert ID with Access
• Re: Cannot insert into MS Access Memo field with DBI

The above will show you how to connect, query and, if required, grab the insertion id of a new record if your logic requires it.
