[AccessD] Looping through code modules

Roz,

I have just done some work on this.  When you say "getting the code modules"...do you want to save them as text files, store the text in a memo field, just search for keywords, or something else?

I have found 3 approaches...each has its pros and cons.  My project involved searching an entire list of MDBs from a single mdb.

In no particular order:

1A.  loop through DB.Containers
2A.  set new application  and loop through rapp.VBE.ActiveVBProject.VBComponents
3A.  set new reference ref = References.AddFromFile("C:\Temp\MyNew.mdb") and loop through VBE.VBProjects(ref.Name).VBComponents

I was trying to search the code for a specific string...here are some of the issues I had with the 3 approaches...although I'm not done with my testing.

1A.  This approach seemed useful for exporting or storing code in tables.
2A.  This one was easy to search the code...but it opened each database to do it.
3A.  This one did not open each MDB...but it had an issue with referencing an mdb of an earlier version.

Please let me know if you have specific questions about any of it.

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
