[AccessD] Poll: Late vs. Early Binding

Sometimes I take advantage of it, usually when working with something
unfamiliar.

Bryan,

Perhaps I could have said re-code rather than re-write, but your response
more closely answers the question I was NOT asking, which was...
Do the members of this group utilize the IDE advantages of early binding
whenever possible while coding or is the expertise at a level where the
advantages are negligible.

Thank you,

Mark

I don't know if it is common practice, but I usually write code using early
binding, If I am writing for a specific application version, then I leave it
as early bound. Otherwise I switch to late binding.

You shouldn't have to rewrite any code when switching. All you should have
to do is switch your DIMs to objects and derefernce the libraries.

You may also have to create your own constants for some of the built in
constants from the referenced libraries, but a wholesale rewrite shouldn't
be necessary.

Right or wrong, this is what works for me.

Is it a common practice to first code using early binding, then, after
debugging is complete, re-write using late binding?
