I've set up an oracle db with ms sql, and have been experimenting with using VBA to change the sql statement and refresh, (new to VBA)

here's what I have so far (and it works)

Code:
Private Sub Submit_Click()
Set qry = QTable.ListObjects(1).QueryTable
    qry.CommandText = form.SQLText.Text

Sheets("Qtable").Select
Sheets("Qtable").Range("A2").Select
Selection.ListObject.QueryTable.Refresh

End Sub

Questions:
1. Hard coding the 'range' and table names into the select seems dubious. How do I achieve the desired effect without hard coding?
2. What if there's more than one query table on the sheet?
