There are any number of circumstances where you might present a user
a list of queries and tables and need to do different things with
the choice, where you'd need to know the difference.
I do have the situation where I have a report selection criteria form
with a bunch of combo, list boxes, date ranges and such. I start off
with a combo box of all the report names that start with the word
"user". Once the user selects the form I then enable the controls
appropriate for that report. So yes I do occasionally present such a
list but I want the list of report names to be user readable so spaces
work in that situation.
(BTW I have a table that maps control names on reports to control
names on that form. So when I update a report or add a new report I
run a bunch of code which analyzes the reports control source queries.
This then enables/disables the controls on the above mentioned form.)
If you never do those, I guess it doesn't matter, but I just can't
get over the idea of putting spaces in the name of anything in
Access.
To each thier own.
