OpenModule Method

Applies To

DoCmd object.

Description

The OpenModule method carries out the OpenModule action in Visual Basic. For more information on how the action and its arguments work, see the action topic.

Syntax

DoCmd.OpenModule [modulename][, procedurename]

The OpenModule method has the following arguments.

Argument

Description

modulename

A string expression that's the valid name of the Visual Basic module you want to open. If you leave this argument blank, Microsoft Access searches all the standard modules in the database for the procedure you selected with the procedurename argument and opens the module containing the procedure to that procedure.

If you execute Visual Basic code containing the OpenModule method in a library database, Microsoft Access looks for the module with this name first in the library database, then in the current database.


(continued)

procedurename

A string expression that's the valid name for the procedure you want to open the module to. If you leave this argument blank, the module opens to the Declarations section.


Remarks

You must include at least one of the two OpenModule action arguments. If you enter a value for both arguments, Microsoft Access opens the specified module at the specified procedure.

If you leave the procedurename argument blank, don't use a comma following the modulename argument.
