AllForms collection (AccessObject object)
AccessObject object

The AllForms collection contains an AccessObject object for each form in the CurrentProject or CodeProject object.

Remarks

The CurrentProject and CodeProject object has an AllForms collection containing AccessObject objects that describe instances of all the forms in the database. For example, you can enumerate the AllForms collection in Visual Basic to set or return the values of properties of individual AccessObject objects in the collection.

Tip   The For Each...Next statement is useful for enumerating a collection.

You can refer to an individual AccessObject object in the AllForms collection either by referring to the object by name, or by referring to its index within the collection. If you want to refer to a specific object in the AllForms collection, it's better to refer to the form by name because a form's collection index may change.

The AllForms collection is indexed beginning with zero. If you refer to a form by its index, the first form is AllForms(0), the second form is AllForms(1), and so on.

Note   To list all open forms in the database, use the IsLoaded property of each AccessObject object in the AllForms collection. You can then use the Name property of each individual AccessObject object to return the name of a form.

You can't add or delete an AccessObject object from the AllForms collection.
