I assume, then, that when you did that work for me (the Ashland
Equipment Project) that you had to do this?  Cause I'm pretty sure I
didn't have that checked, for the work that I did on that.

Keith,
Unless you are a glutton for punishment, this is a "must do" practice.
When
I work on anything where it hasn't been used the first thing I do is add
it
to all modules. Just one time you have a typo (and I have plenty of
them)
which causes a problem and you'll know why :o)

John

PS: There are some tools out there that will do this for you.

My database performance analyzer is recommending I use Option Explicit
Statements in my two main forms.  I understand the benefits of doing so,
from a programming error recognition standpoint.  Is there any benefit
from
a performance standpoint?  I pretty much always declare my variables
anyway...so I don't really see a benefit there (no variants in my
programming.)

 

Any ideas?

 

Regards,
