How do I print the definitions of several queries

Hi there,

I have a database with what seems like a trillion (ok, 50) interlinked
queries.

I want to print out, from a code subroutine, the SQL query definitions.

Is this even possible? I've looked and looked and am not getting
anywhere.

Rob.

This won't format very well, but it demonstrates what you asked for:

Public Function ShowAllQueries()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef

Set db = CurrentDb()
For Each qdf In db.QueryDefs
Debug.Print qdf.Name, qdf.SQL
Next
End Function

Yet again i am extremely grateful for the help i get on this board. I
can handle formatting and this is yet another of those ones i should
have sussed out for myself.

Many thanks,

Rob.

If you don't need it to be ran from a code subroutine then it is
simpler to use the Documenter tool from the tools menu (Tools - Analyze
- Documenter). This tool will give you the option to print the SQL,
query properties, parameters, relationships, indexes, and fields
properties for all or selected objects.

One of the reports that my CSD Tools add-in creates will do
exactly this. It will print out the SQL of each query and will
save several trees over the built-in Documentor.

You can find the add-in here on my site:

Yes, it is free, but you must agree to my terms.

My experience has been that Documenter wastes a lot of paper.
