[AccessD] 'Hidden' form question & Excel 2010 question

I wrote a rather elaborate piece of code behind an Excel 2003 spreadsheet to
update data in an Access mdb.  

Actually the project was to export data from the Access based accounting
system to a real complex spreadsheet, which would allow the user to tweak
all the numbers, then, when she got it the way she wanted it, import the
data from the spreadsheet back into the Access back end.

It was all sorts of fun.  So I've got the framework and techniques.  I'll
give it a shot.

Subject: [AccessD] 'Hidden' form question & Excel 2010 question

Hello -

I have 2 questions for you all.

1)  We use a pre-packaged access application for order processing: I've
created a number of custom forms and modules that I export to a
'customizations' data base and import into the main app whenever I install
it to a new machine.  I have one form that seems to export successfully - I
get no error messages, anyway - but when I open up my 'customizations' data
base it can't be found.  I've checked to see if it was somehow set to be
hidden, and that's not the case either.  I tried exporting it to a temporary
data base, and it appeared there just fine.  But I need it to go into this
'customizations' data base, and it just won't go!  What could be causing
this?


2)  Do any of you have any experience writing VB code for Excel 2010?  A
tech temp agency in our area is looking for someone with that kind of
experience for a specific project;  if any of you are game for that type of
thing, please let me know.

Thank you!
