[AccessD] AccessD Digest, Vol 84, Issue 20

Hi Ken --

<<<
SaveAsText/LoadFromText does NOT:

>>>
Are you talking about ItemSuffix property value?

Version =20
VersionRequired =20
Checksum =97318316
Begin Form
    DividingLines = NotDefault
    AllowDesignChanges = NotDefault
    DefaultView =0
....
    ItemSuffix =1
...

I have just played with it (user backup/restore of Access.PowerTools.Add-In
+ manual edit of ItemSuffix back and force etc.) - it can be set to any
value for MS Access 2007 (Access 2003 db format)  forms- and MS Access
gracefully skips (increases) ItemSuffix value if is already occupied..

Am I missing something?
Do you mean there exists another counter?

Thank you.

Max:

Most emphatically NOT the same. The "simple" EatBloat solution didn't fix
our problems.

I've said this in several different ways, but I'll say it again:

SaveAsText/LoadFromText does NOT:
 a) Fix all kinds of bloat
 b) Reset the form lifetime control count limit

Our project had bloat that couldn't be fixed, and many complex forms that
were at the control count limit.

So, the more radical rebuild-from-scratch approach was used.

Trust me, we tried all less-costly methods of fixing our problem before
going this route.
