[AccessD] New Withevents demo - Bows in the general direction of Russia...

Just a small note to those on the list still using Access 97.  WithEvents
will work within Access 97, however, you cannot use RaiseEvent from within a
custom class in Access 97.  It is available in Access 2000 (and up), and in
VB 6 (not sure what version of VB RaiseEvent was added).  It is a reserved
word in A97, but unfortunately does nothing.

Personally, I still love Access 97.  I use it exclusively when I just need a
database (but not a GUI).  If I need a Access based GUI, I tend to go with
2000 or up, simply for the reason of getting custom events within my
classes.

	Folks,

	First of all, let me once again thank Shamil whom I consider to be
the
	Father of AccessD Withevents usage, and who taught me everything I
know
	about the subject.  Withevents is the single most useful
undocumented
	feature of Access AFAIAC.  Withevents are DEAD EASY to understand,
and make
	available a whole class of functionality that you would otherwise be
unable
	to use.  If you don't understand them yet, take this opportunity to
learn
	how they work.
