When you declare a Type (=user-defined type), like this code is (and
if you don't specify anything else, it's automatically a Public Type),
it has to be in a Standard Module. And for good reasons: if you were
able to say put it in an Object Module like a Form Module, how would
Access know about that type if the form is not open? Global stuff
needs to be at the global level. With this background info, the error
message makes perfect sense.

Hi all,
I've copied an API from this webpage:
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm - its an api to create an
open/save dialog box. However I'm getting errors when I just wack all
the code into the code builder. Its saying "You can't define a public
user-defined type within an object module"
Where do I need to put the first couple of lines for it to work, or
what do I have to put all the functions etc???
Cheers,
Scott
