How can I read my code? - Microsoft Access / VBA

Thelma Lubkin

I am trying to learn enough Visual Basic/Access to be useful to a
volunteer agency. I can't spend much time over there and I have
neither Access nor access to any microsoft stuff at home -- have a Mac
and a Unix (not Linux) system.

I've started to develop a form based on an existing database. I am
interested in the design of the database, not its contents. And of
course I'm interested in the design and code I've written for my form.

I can get no readable text from the .mdb files; I haven't learned enough to
have found anything about this in the help guides or the book I've
bought, and I haven't been smart enough to feed google anything that
brings it far enough to the surface for me to find. I hope there's
something better than copying all to the clipboard and pasting...

help please,

Thelma, it sounds like what you want is the Documenter. Finding it varies a
bit from version to version, in Access 2000, go to Tools->Analyze, then
select Documenter. It will print out any code modules you want and all
sorts of info about forms and tables, etc.

Hope this helps -
Randy
