Hi,
This does sound like a bit of a weird thing to ask so I will state my
question and then further down explain why I am trying to do it. So
if you have the answer then reply! Or if you understand what I am
trying to do and can suggest a better solution then reply also!
Question
--------
I want to run a VBA code module from either VB/VB.NET/C#. How can I
go about calling the call module?
Why
---
I have an MS Access project that is hooked up with SQL-MSDE. I have
developed a complex and nice looking report. What I want to do is let
my work colleges view it over the internal intranet. The Data Access
Pages doesn't seem to work - Access throws a fit over the calulated
fields. In Access though you can use the ExportXML feature and it
creates the XML files that can be viewed in any web browser. So I
have written a code module that does this in the Access project. I
then want to run this and the XMl files will get updated. Simple
request I thought..
Any help, as always, greatly appreciated.
cheers

You can use automation to achieve this:
Dim acc As Object
Set acc = CreateObject("A ccess.Applicati on")
acc.OpenCurrent Database "PathToYour DB"
acc.DoCmd.OpenM odule "ModuleName ", "ProcedureN ame"
Set acc = Nothing

Scott's concept is a good one, and it should make it clear that Access must
be installed on the machine where this code is running.
The code he supplies is in VB6.0; the same thing can be done in .NET
languages, but the syntax is a little different.
The one problem I see is in this line:
acc.DoCmd.OpenM odule "ModuleName ", "ProcedureN ame"
This will open the module for editing, which is not, I believe, what is
desired.
Make sure the procedure you want to call (I'll call it MyProcedure) is
declared as Public.
Then you can call it like this:
acc.MyProcedure
However, this is still a kludgy way to display a report on an Internet page.
You might want to look into Front Page - or since you mention .NET, try
ASP.NET - it's incredibly powerful!

Visual Studio doesn't seem to be able to create the necessary assemblies

Works O.K. with Outlook, Word, Excel, Dao 3.6... just not Access. At least
not 8 or 10. Have you done this?
Thanks for that - I will try it tonight.

I've done it with VB 6.0, but since you use the term "assemblies " I'm
guessing that you're using .NET.
Would that be correct?

I was asking about .Net, yes.
I was wondering if I was having problems, or if .Net just isn't up to
speed with Access yet. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I use the following code to reset an ID when an order has been filled
