Or as much bloat as there is throughout Office, having the VB stuff repeated in the Access help wouldn't be that huge of a problem either. What's a few more Mb in the help file? Basically the reason is, it is the way it is because we were to lazy or it was too hard to make it the way it should be. Poor excuse for software that costs ANYTHING, let along software that costs what Office and Access does. IMSHO anyway.
