Maybe everyone but me knows this, but I just stumbled upon the fact that it
is possible to have two functions with the same name coexist. If one is in a
module in the current database and the other in a module in a referenced
code library Access will use the function in the current database and ignore
the version in the code library. Everything compiles and runs fine at least
in access 2000. Whether or not this is useful or merely dangerous is a
different question.
