[AccessD] 2 Questions

Tony:

1. At the top of  the module put
Option explict

Then compile it, all the unspecified variable will be picked up.


2. Me neither.  I seldom use relationship and much prefer to handle them in
code.

Subject: [AccessD] 2 Questions

Hey All
Just pondering
1. Access2003 does not seem to pick up erroneous variables.
If on a form I assign for a control
Dim JTnum as double
then in code
..................
I make a spelling error
Jnum = rst.Pnum
...................
rst!dnum=jnum (which gives me 0).
When I run a compile I do not get an error message.
In previous versions of Access I am pretty sure the above would generate an
error message. Have I inadvertently turned something off????

2. I do not use the Tools Relationship.
I establish them in my queries and in my forms/subforms link or in code.  I
also (because I have never liked Access's error messages) warn users with my
own error message if a problem might occur.  Is this a feature designed for
non-developers just like the table lookup (which I don't use either) or am I
missing something (life has been good without it, just curious)????
