[AccessD] Missing references

You open the macro in design view, and from the View menu select
"Conditions". In the conditions column you can then type 

CheckReferences() = False

If that statement is true all the macro action on that line will execute

In other words to convert

If SomeCondition() Then
	DoSomething
	DoSomethingElse
Else
	DoADiffferentThing
Endif

To a macro it would look like

Condition 			: Action
=====================================
SomeCondition()=True 	: DoSomething
SomeCondition()=True 	: DoSomethingElse
SomeCondition()=False	: DoADiffferentThing

Note that each statement in the True part of the IF needs a condition,
otherwise the DoSomethingElse part would execute every time, regardless of
what the result of SomeCondition() was.

Thanks Gustav,

This is almost embarrassing...I see the code...I know what the code does...I

can write VBA...ALL...DAY...LONGGGG...But I don't know how to convert your 
IF statement back to a macro???  lol...Not sure why but I find this fact 
amusing, but I do.  Here is the VBA/Macro...

<macro>

'------------------------------------------------------------
' AutoExec
'
'------------------------------------------------------------
Function AutoExec()

  DoCmd.Echo False, ""
  If (CheckReferences() = False) Then
    Call VerifyReferences(True)
    DoCmd.OpenModule "USysReferencesCheck", ""
    DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCompileAndSaveAllMod
    DoCmd.Close , ""
  End If
  DoCmd.Echo True, ""

End Function

</macro>

I got the echo part...lol...but how do you do the if statement?

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
