Just wanting a resource or explanation
I've adopted a wonderfully aweful application and I haven't programmed in VB in several years. I was wondering if there are resources that can tell me what each part of this means: DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70 or if someone would like to explain what each method, action, or whatever it's called does?
I can sort of infer about some, but I like specifics. I went to the MSDN library, but it only explains a few of them in the depth. Just call me anal. ![]() Thanks Sug ![]() |

If you open the VB editor in Access look at the VB online help, the language reference is all there.

Thanks Doug. I did that, but it wouldn't give me the information I wanted. Being fairly new at VBA I'm unclear about what all that ac... stuff actually does.
There is a form that draws info from the DB & displays it. If a user updates the editable information in the screen & clicks "save", then this line is called in the save function: DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70. I would really like to know how the record is "saved" by this function. Does acSaveRecord take what is in the bound text boxes and place it into the correct fields, to which they are bound? I really could have figured it out if there was any kind of reference that addresses what any of the ac... means. If you know of a reference that is that in depth, inquiring minds would like to know. Also, what does the "ac" stand for, access? Most of the constants, etc that I saw in the VB editor online help had the "vb" in front of them. It's kinda obvious what that means, but ac? Thanks for all you're help. Sug |

Look at the DoCmd help. Each of the methods of DoCmd has it's own help that describes the acWhatever constants applicable to the particular DoCmd action.
