MS Access: The expression you entered is too complex

I'm trying to call this VBA function in the following update query and I'm getting this error. I'm stuck and I don't know what to do. The function signature seems ok to me.

enter image description here

Compute([ep].[ReferenceNumber],[ep].[ITU3Number],[ep].[AuthorizationNumber],[ep].[Ent],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[LineCode],[ep].[ProductLinee],[ep].[Inp_ProfitCenterCode],[ep].[Inp_ParisBOCode],[ep].[StartDate],[ep].[EndDate],[ep].[ExtractionDate],[ep].[OffBalance],[ep].[IType],[ep].[Counterparty],[ep].[WAL],[ep].[Inp_BackupLineIndicator],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[FinalRating],[ep].[Amount],[ep].[Currency],[ep].[Historical],[ep].[rice],[ep].[MaturityIndicator],[ep].[pproachType],[ep].[SignatureDate],[ep].[IMaturityDate],[ep].[ProductType],[ep].[Inp_StepupDuration],[ep].[ProbabilityOfStepup],[ep].[SCF],[ep].[ICollateralSCF],[ep].[MobilFlag,[ep].[MarginBp],[ep].[ExtensionCode],[ep].[ExtensionYear],[ep].[UsageType],"a","a")

I'm not sure there is a Compute function. Did you perhaps truncate the name? – ThunderFrame
Yeah for the sake of confidentiality! Just assume it's the same.. – Jayson
best not put it in the screenshot then! – ThunderFrame

The expression is too long for Access to process:

The maximum acceptable length appears to be around 560 characters The maximum number of arguments seems to be 29.

For example, by truncating some fields, this works:

Compute([ep].[ReferenceNumber],[ep].[ITU3Number],[ep].[AuthorizationNumber],[ep].[Ent],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[LineCode],[ep].[ProductLinee],[ep].[Inp_ProfitCenterCode],[ep].[Inp_ParisBOCode],[ep].[StartDate],[ep].[EndDate],[ep].[ExtractionDate],[ep].[OffBalance],[ep].[IType],[ep].[Counterparty],[ep].[WAL],[ep].[Inp_BackupLineIndicator],[ep].[Indicator],[ep].[FinalRating],[ep].[Amount],[ep].[Currency],[ep].[Historical],[ep].[rice],[ep].[MaturityIndicator],[ep].[pproachType],[ep].[SignatureDate],[ep].[IMaturityDate],[ep].[ProductType],[ep].[Inp_StepupDuration])

This works:

Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29)

But this fails:

Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30)

So, you could do something like this:

Compute(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,SubCompute(29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56))
