[AccessD] Oops, wrote my own virus! <Grin>

Likewise.  I had a piece of VBA code for Excel.  I don't remember what it
was at the moment.  McAfee VirusScan didn't object to it when it was
embedded in an Excel workbook, but when I exported it to a .bas file, it
objected to it.  I had to rename it to a .txt.  I went a couple of rounds
with McAfee Technical Support about it, but I never did get a satisfactory
response.

Regards,

Steve Goodhall

Glad to see I'm not the only one that has done that :-)

I once wrote some Word VBA code that copied some code from a template to the
document based on that template and the virus scanner here at work
quarantined my template and wouldn't let me use it anymore.

D*mn virus scanners. More of a PITA than useful :-)) (tounge firmly planted
in my cheek)
