Excel VBA ADO query loop for too many rows

I am trying to perform a query on an excel worksheet like I have done many times, but now the data has over 70k rows. Normally, I get the message that it cannot find the table if this is the case, which is to be expected since I think it stops working at around 65k rows or so.

So, what I am trying instead is doing a loop where in the first part of the loop I run the first 60k rows, and in every iteration of the loop it does another batch of 60k until it finishes with the last set. The loop creates a new sheet with the data to work with so I can have the column headers with the data set. It seems to work all the way up to the part where it runs a new query on the data from the new sheet. It gives me the error that "The Microsoft Access database engine could not find the object " (My Table Name)... etc.

For my specific example the table is "Sheet1$A1:N12790" where 12790 is the leftover number of rows from the over 70k row sheet and Sheet1 is the sheet that is created when you run the code.

So, I have absolutely no clue why it is giving this error when it usually only does it if there are too many rows or if the table definitely does not exist.

I tried running a simple Select * from [Sheet1$A1:N12790] with a separate sub, and it works perfectly. This leads me to believe that somehow maybe excel is running out of memory perhaps after doing the first one? But I have no idea what to do about it, and there is very little information on the web about this since it is so specific and rare since most people just use a regular database at this point.

Thanks!

UPDATE: I have been testing many things. I have tried creating a test sub to handle the new sheet (as explained above) and it works when run separately, but if I try and force the main sub to exit the loop sooner and then call the new test sub to run what I want it to do, it gives me the same error. So again, both subs run separately perfectly but I can't use the one to call the other. Shows me more proof that it is less about the coding and more about some sort of processing complication, but I still am just putting out theories.

Update 2: Thank you for all of the ideas and suggestions up till now (6/20/18). Here is a screenshot of what the error says when it runs through the second time and tries to run MySQL:

Thanks to Xabier and Alan for their contributions to the solution.

Xabier for the cleaner code. Alan for identifying the underlying issue.

The issue is that when the original table gets split onto the new sheet to account for the excess rows, even though the sheet exists, the ADO was not recognizing it yet. It's not until you leave the current sub that it recognizes it (at least that is my understanding from all of the discussion, testing, and ultimately my solution).

So, as a high level summary:

1. To account for too many rows and getting the "Access cannot find your table" error message, I would let the first 60k run on the current sheet and then copy the next 60k (or less) to a new sheet.

2. In order for the ADO to recognize the newly created sheet, I placed the connection and recordset functionality into a separate sub and called it from within my original sub by passing any parameters that I needed it to have to run successfully.

3. I then came back to my original sub, deleted the newly created sheet, and then looped through this process again until I had accounted for the entire original sheet.

So, for example, 140k rows would run the first 60k on the original sheet, run the next 60k off of a new sheet, and the last 20k off of another new sheet.

The key really was to put the recordset into a new sub and call it, and this was only necessary because the ADO was not seeing the newly created sheets without first leaving the original sub.

Thanks for all input, and here is my code below in case you are interested. Please note the code will look similar (with some modifications) to the cleaner version that Xabier posted.
