John,

  I think you'd get a little more mileage out of the discussion by asking if
anyone has built a framework or used one regardless of product and if so,
what services were offered.  What a developer needs to produce an app can be
somewhat generalized at first.  Later you could focus on specifics that
relate to Access (like passing/parsing Openargs).

  You've already brought up one in a latter thread; handling multiple
instances of the same form.  There are others, such as providing login,
security, and user tracking within an app.

  Interface elements; progress bar, pick form, pre-built form and control
classes
  Printing; Printer pick, run as PDF
  Low level; generate surrogate PK's, encryption, station identification,
etc.
  Utility; find and replace, line numbering, error handler inserts,
indenting, etc.

Jim.

Has anyone on the list built and used a framework for Access?  If so would
you be willing to write a synopsis of what services it supplies to your
applications and how you go about using it.

Thanks,
