Have you tried ADO?  I used to have code for this on my old machines but
I've lost track of it in upgrades.

Nope,

Access wont let you delete from the forms or reports collection.

Wonder if going through the mysys tables might do it....hmm

In DAO, it should be pretty simple.  Just refer to the forms or reports
collection, start from the highest index in the collection and call delete.
You have to work backwards to loop through all of them

Anybody know how to loop through and delete all reports and all forms.

It seems that Access will not let you delete from the collections.

Must be a programmable way but never done it before.
