Hi Mark
I'm looping through and creating a list of code modules (module type, form &
report modules) and writing them to a recordset so they can be selected /
deselected for processing. Processing involves searching for error handling,
inserting it if there is none, or replacing it if there is any - with a call
to a central error handler. I'd like in future to do it so it shows you the
changes before committing them, which will involve saving the code out
somewhere I guess.
It's designed to run as an mda & work on the current database, so the target
database will always be open. I'm using the Containers collection at the
moment, and it works ok, it just seems a little clunky.
Thanks for your answer. Coming at this very much from an Access direction I
didn't consider the VBComponents collection.
Cheers
Roz

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
