Returning a password from another database.mde

S

Steven

I want to return a password that is in a function in a module in a separate
database. I have a small example here. The database I am in is db2 ; I want
to return a password out of a module in db1.

Here is what I have so far.

Private Sub Command0_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command0_Click

Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim ws As DAO.Workspace

Set ws = DBEngine.Workspaces(0)
Set db = ws.OpenDatabase("C:\db1.mde", False, False)

'**Question - How do I call a Function in a Module in db1.mde that will
set the password and return it for use in db2?

ws.Close
Set ws = Nothing
db.Close
Set db = Nothing

'**Show MsgBox with password from db1.mde**
MsgBox vPassword01

Exit_Command0_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_Command0_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Command0_Click

End Sub


--------------Module1 in db1.mde----------------
Function SetPassword()
Dim vPassword01 as String
vPassword01 = "itworksgreat"
End Function


Thank you for your help,

Steven
