You're assuming that people *do* steer clear of learning VBA in another app, which is just as fallacious as claiming it's all the same thing.

I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one that understood that! <Grin> I think that way too many people steer clear of learning VBA in another app, because they feel it is going to be a whole new ball game, when in fact, it's the same game, just in a different stadium! <evilgrin> Drew -----Original Message----- From: Arthur Fuller [mailto:artful at rogers.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 1:38 PM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] VBE No, Susan. The ephemera differ, but they all attempt to disorient you with centrifugal v. centriptal force and similar Physics 101 techniques, so as soon as you understand centrifugal v. centripital you have everything you need. Granted there are different objects in different hierarchies but so what? That's no deeper than different tables in the same database. That's IMO what Drew was suggesting, and IMO he is entirely correct. As opposed, for example, to taking some VBA code from whatever target you choose and porting it to Java or Python.
