Susan,

Probably slower, but could you do something like this:

    Dim db As DAO.Database, doc As Document, frm As Form, prp As
Property
    Set db = CurrentDb
    For Each doc In db.Containers!Forms.Documents
        Debug.Print doc.Name
        DoCmd.OpenForm doc.Name, acNormal, , , , acHidden
        Set frm = Forms(doc.Name)
        For Each prp In frm.Properties
             Debug.Print prp.Name, prp.Value
        Next
        DoCmd.Close acForm, doc.Name, acSaveNo
    Next
    Set db = Nothing

Hope this helps,

Don

Yeah, the Help doesn't really give too much information, but my guess is
that the AccessObjectProperties aren't the same as the form properties. 

I need to get at the form's properties for ALL the forms, not just the
open
ones, so I need to use the AccessObject.

Hi Susan

Perhaps simply no AccessObjectProperty is present ..?

The following procedure seems to totally skip the second For Each loop.
No
error, it just skips it, as if there are no properties in the Properties
collection, which may be the case. I realize we're dealing with
different
collections and I may not be referencing things right. Any help?
 
Thanks!

Public Function EnumAllFormProp()
  'Print the name and setting for
  'each property in every form.
  Dim obj As Access.AccessObject
  Dim prp As Access.AccessObjectProperty
  For Each obj In CurrentProject.AllForms
    Debug.Print obj.Name
    For Each prp In obj.Properties
      Debug.Print prp.Name
      Debug.Print prp.Value
    Next
  Next
End Function
