In Access 2000 while in module-VBA-design-mode do a CTRL-G and the immediate window opens up. That is were the results will go. Also in the immediate window you could issue the command -> debug.print "Hello World" Or -> ? "Hello World 2" The ? is a short cut for debug.print There are a lot of uses for this. Play with it. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Bob Gajewski Sent: Monday, June 02, 2008 5:18 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] How do I retrieve a form's LastModified date? I haven't used Debug.Print before ... Where exactly do I put this code?

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 Max -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Dan Waters Sent: Monday, June 02, 2008 2:51 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] How do I retrieve a form's LastModified date? 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.

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?
