Dan,
They are definitely different on  my computer.

Here is the  output which corresponds to what is shown in the database
window.


frmEvent      10/05/2008 08:10:29         13/05/2008 17:32:13

This is what I did try.  The .DateCreated and .DateModified both give the
Created Date.

There is also another VBA method using Containers, but the result is the
same.

You could mess around with the AllForms properties.  Something like this:-

Function frmProperties()
  Dim obj As AccessObject, dbs As Object
  Set dbs = Application.CurrentProject
  For Each obj In dbs.AllForms
    If obj.Name = "frmEvent" Then ' or If obj.IsLoaded = True Then
      Debug.Print obj.Name, obj.DateCreated, obj.DateModified
    End If
  Next obj
End Function

This will extract the modified date and other items.

Bob - I tried to find this out as well.  I finally found a MS KB article
which said that since A2000, you cannot get the date last modified
programmatically due to the database structure change at that time.  The
only way to find out the date is to just look at the database window.

There is VBA code to get the last modified date, but the date it returns is
the created date, which isn't helpful.

HTH,
Dan

Hello Friends

I need to check the last modified date/time on a form. I suspect that this
is only possible through an API call, which is something I know NOTHING
about.

Could someone please help me or point me to a resource that I can learn
from?

Regards,
Bob Gajewski
