The code below illustrates how to set the property, creating it if
necessary.
Example usage:
? SetPropertyDAO(CurrentDb.TableDefs("Table1").Field s("Field1"),
"Format", dbText, "Short Date")
Function SetPropertyDAO(obj As Object, strPropertyName As String, intType As
Integer, varValue As Variant, Optional strErrMsg As String) As Boolean
On Error GoTo ErrHandler
'Purpose: Set a property for an object, creating if necessary.
'Arguments: obj = the object whose property should be set.
' strPropertyName = the name of the property to set.
' intType = the type of property (needed for creating)
' varValue = the value to set this property to.
' strErrMsg = string to append any error message to.
If HasProperty(obj, strPropertyName) Then
obj.Properties(strPropertyName) = varValue
Else
obj.Properties.Append obj.CreateProperty(strPropertyName, intType,
varValue)
End If
SetPropertyDAO = True
ExitHandler:
Exit Function
ErrHandler:
strErrMsg = strErrMsg & obj.Name & "." & strPropertyName & " not set to
" & varValue & ". Error " & Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description & vbCrLf
Resume ExitHandler
End Function
