Database Object, Databases Collection Example
This example creates a new Database object and opens an existing Database object in the default Workspace object. Then it enumerates the Database collection and the Properties collection of each Database object. See the methods and properties listed in the Database summary topic for additional examples.
Sub DatabaseObjectX()
Dim wrkJet As Workspace
Dim dbsNorthwind As Database
Dim dbsNew As Database
Dim dbsLoop As Database
Dim prpLoop As Property
Set wrkJet = CreateWorkspace("JetWorkspace", "admin", _
"", dbUseJet)
' Make sure there isn't already a file with the name of
' the new database.
If Dir("NewDB.mdb") <> "" Then Kill "NewDB.mdb"
' Create a new database with the specified
' collating order.
Set dbsNew = wrkJet.CreateDatabase("NewDB.mdb", _
dbLangGeneral)
Set dbsNorthwind = wrkJet.OpenDatabase("Northwind.mdb")
' Enumerate the Databases collection.
For Each dbsLoop In wrkJet.Databases
With dbsLoop
Debug.Print "Properties of " & .Name
' Enumerate the Properties collection of each
' Database object.
For Each prpLoop In .Properties
If prpLoop <> "" Then Debug.Print " " & _
prpLoop.Name & " = " & prpLoop
Next prpLoop
End With
Next dbsLoop
dbsNew.Close
dbsNorthwind.Close
wrkJet.Close
End Sub
