Hey, anybody know this,

My query is simple just a simple "SELECT QUERY", but i encounter a problem that i had never encounter before. Every time i put a condition(Where Clause) in my select statement it will definitely pop an error message says that : "Data type mismatch in criteria expression."

Any idea will be appreciated...Thanks.
