Probably a simple error

I've spent all morning trying to write my own page, not rely on UltraDev, but I have a problem I think I've been staring at for too long.  I'm creating a detail page where someone can read the full text of a news article by clicking on a link.  My problem is writing a select statement that pulls the correct record:

Here's my link from the first page:  <a href="displaypage.asp?recordid=<%=strSQL.Fields("NewsNo").Value%>">Click for more details</a>

And here's my select statement on the detail page:

<%
 dim m_strDSN, news, strSQL, NewsNo
 NewsNo = CInt(Request.QueryString("recordid"))
 m_strDSN=Application("DBDSN")
 set news = server.createobject("ADODB.Connection")
 news.open m_strDSN
 set strSQL = news.Execute("Select * from DailyNews where recordid = "& NewsNo")"

%>

Which gives me a 

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ee'

Expected ')'

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance!
