Compile error: User-defined type not defined.

27 New Member
Hi everyone,
I am trying to export a table to an excel file using vba on a form's button click event. I am getting the error:

Compile error: User-defined type not defined.

And it highlights my first line:

Dim appExcel As Excel.Applicati on

Any ideas? I am using Access 2003, but I am using Access 2000 file format. Does this have to with DAO and ADO something-or-others? I'm a beginner with all of this database stuff so please help!

You need a reference to the Microsoft Excel Object Library.

One of them has mandatory parameters, I mean, they should not be null nor empty (for strings). So I'd make the validation in the constructor and generate a compile-time error if the validation does not match... Is there a way to achieve this or to specify...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
