Is [btTerritoryStateID] in the DLookup a String value or a Numeric value?

The syntax you used is for a String value. If it is Numeric, try:

DLookUp( "btBrokerID", "tblBrokerTerritory",
"[btTerritoryStateID] = " & tblListerListing.llStateID )

If I take out the Dlookup part all is well but I really need that Dlookup.
Can someone explian why?

Const strSQL = "SELECT tblLister.lListerID, tblLister.lFirstName,
tblLister.lLastName, tblLister.leMailAddress, tblLister.lFaxNumber,
tblLister.lCellPhoneNumber, tblLister.lOtherPhoneNumber,
tblLister.lPhoneNumber,
DLookUp("btBrokerID","tblBrokerTerritory","[btTerritoryStateID]='" &
[llStateID] & "'") AS BrokerID, tblListerListing.llListingID,
tblListerListing.llSaleAmount, tblListerListing.llInActiveOrSold,
tblListerListing.llInvestmentPotential, tblListerListing.llListingTypeID,
tblListerListing.llTerritoryPopulation, tblListerListing.llMonthlyRent,
tblListerListing.llMonthlyRevenue, tblListerListing.llAskingPrice,
tblListerListing.llGrossSDEPercent, tblListerListing.llGrossSDEAmount,
tblListerListing.llStateID, tblListerListing.llTerritoryName FROM
tblLister INNER JOIN tblListerListing ON tblLister.lListerID =
tblListerListing.llListerID"

I use the above because of the below:

If Not Me.cboListTypeID = "" Then
Select Case cboListTypeID
Case "A"
strFilterSQL = strSQL
Me.RecordSource = strFilterSQL
Case "M"
strFilterSQL = strSQL & " Where [BrokerID] =
Forms![frmLogOn]![cboLoginID];"
Me.Form.AllowAdditions = False
Me.RecordSource = strFilterSQL
Case Else
strFilterSQL = strSQL & " Where [llListingTypeID] = '" &
cboListTypeID & "';"
Me.RecordSource = strFilterSQL
End Select
End If

Thanks to anyone who can help,
