Rows missing from linked Access query - excel

Question

Using Excel 2007, I linked to an Access query using the Data>From Access button, and set it to display as a table. All of the rows are present except any with the Type of 'Placement fee'.
E.g. in the example below, the Free Case Fill deductions show up in the Excel sheet, but the Placement fee deduction doesn't. This query exports fine from Access as Excel format, so it seems to be Excel that is ignoring these rows when linking to it.
Any ideas what can cause rows to be ignored when linking to an Access query?
Chain Account Distributor Warehouse StoreID USDate Type of Deduction TotalValue
Bob's Shops Bob's Shops SMITHS Romeoville KH00463 5/1/2012 Free Case Fill 29.8
Bob's Shops Bob's Shops SMITHS Romeoville KH00463 5/1/2012 Placement fee 2.98
Bob's Shops Bob's Shops JONES Greenwood UN20521 6/1/2011 Free Case Fill 38.81
-edit-
The SQL is below - there are about four or five stacked queries until it gets down to table level.
The placement fees are calculated separately and then added into the rest of the deductions straight from the deductions table, so the only thing I can think of is that they are formatted slightly differently and Excel is ignoring them maybe because the values aren't the same numeric type as the other deductions? But when I export the query directly from Access, everything looks like the same type (i.e. all the values are right-aligned as they are treated as numbers).
SELECT Chain, Account, Distributor, Warehouse, StoreID, USDate, [Type of Deduction], SUM([Total Value($)]) AS TotalValue
FROM (SELECT Chain, Account, Distributor, Warehouse, StoreID, USDate, [Type of Deduction], [Total Value($)]
FROM DeductionsStoresGroupedByMonth
UNION ALL SELECT [Chain/Account/Warehouse], [Chain/Account/Warehouse2], Distributor, [Chain/Account/Warehouse3], StoreID, USDate, [Type of Deduction], [Amount($)]
FROM DeductionsByChainNoStoreID) AS [%$###_Alias]
GROUP BY Chain, Account, Distributor, Warehouse, StoreID, USDate, [Type of Deduction];

This query (and three others like it) just shows two empty rows when linked as a table from Excel - it is just one column of string, and one column of integers, so no idea what the problem is with this one:
SELECT Deductions.[Distributor's Reference], Count(Deductions.StoreID) AS NumFreeCaseFills
FROM Deductions
WHERE (((Deductions.[Type of Deduction]) Like "*free case fill*") AND ((Deductions.Details) Not Like "*placement fee*"))
GROUP BY Deductions.[Distributor's Reference];

Answer 1

Try ANSI-92 Query mode wild card characters for the Like patterns.
WHERE
Deductions.[Type of Deduction] Like "%free case fill%"
AND Deductions.Details Not Like "%placement fee%"
