[AccessD] Load from test AGAIN

Its fails on this line
 
    Application.LoadFromText acForm, Mid(strTemp, InStr(1, strTemp, "_", vbTextCompare) + 1), "C:\forms\" & strTemp
 
strTemp has the value Form_Customer Details.txt coming into the loop
 
 
Never gets past this.
 
The error is
 
The object name 'Customer Details.txt' does not follow Microsoft Access object naming rules
 
I get the feeling the answer is staring me in the face here.
 
If I do a simple application.LoadFromText then its not a problem.
 
But if I have 500 objects I would like to automate the process and just grab them all.

You don't give any specifics on where your problem occurs, Martin.  Is
it in the file system object handling, the LoadFromText, or what?  I've
usually had fewer problems with any kind of iterative operation on files
when I created an array of the filenames (with or without extensions) to
be retrieved using Dir or file system object and then passed that into a
routine to do the actual handling, with some kind of test in place to
see if one item has succeeded before passing in another item.

Ok this has me beat

No matter what I try I cant get it to loop through a folder and import
the exported text files. Tried Martys stuff, Drews stuff and my own.
Used file system object to return only the file name without the
extension and no luck.

Any help greatly appreciated.

background

Access database objects exported as text files into C\|Forms

I think need to LoadFromText all the objects in said folder back into
database.

This cannot be as difficult as it seems. One at a time and naming the
files it works. Only when I go to look through all the objects does it
fail. This is almost my last example file I need and its melting my
head.
