Dan,

 

Further to my (off list) note from late last night, I did a little more
review. I opened the EIasT.mdb with a breakpoint to allow stepping thru the
code. In the problem data base, the queries and forms - up to the problem
form - are all exported as text as expected. After the error, the code stops
on a STOP statement, as it should. If I step through, it continues with the
next procedure in code and does Import the text that was previously
exported.

 

It seems I have a corrupted Form and that its source can not be retrieved. I
did not find any resolution to the "there isn't enough memory to perform
this operation. Close unneeded programs and try the operation again". Seems
the consensus is to rebuild the form involved.

 

So from an EIasT view, I did use the utility against another database and
all was well. It did build a directory and saved all queries, forms, reports
and nodules (I don't have any macros), It did import all the text. It does
Compact and Repair. And the database , original and rebuilt are available.
Good stuuf.

 

I'm impressed with your code. No wasted code; very concise. I especially
like the line numbers in the vba. I take it that is based on your use of FMC
utilities. The progress bars are a nice feature - seems there are lots of
people trying to build these based on forums I've seen.

 

Again, thanks for responding quickly, and thanks for the EIasT code.
Perhaps it should be made available at databaseadvisors as a utility.
