So, you wanted JUnit/NUnit ideas ported to MS Access/VBA? We're thinking in the same direction :) Do you think it could be broadly used? (VBA is getting "dead" language?) Yes, VBA/Access Unit testing can be done several ways. I'd use open source NUnit sources for starters.... Rough estimation: not that much work - one/a couple of months - anybody to sponsor? :) What about NDoc(http://ndoc.sourceforge.net/) ? Also wanted to port it to VBA? - no problem - any sponsors? :) Shamil ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charlotte Foust" <cfoust at infostatsystems.com> To: "Access Developers discussion and problem solving" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Thursday, August 18, 2005 10:23 PM Subject: RE: [AccessD] Disconnected MS Access cient applications.. > Yes, I work with ADO.Net a lot, but in VB.Net, not Access, and I haven't > even looked at C#.
