Correct you are Sir. RaiseEvent does not work in Access97. It does not cause a compile or runtime error however so you can just leave it in there and not use that functionality. John W.

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. -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
