Programatically (VB) copy forms from one db to another

D

Desperado

It is possible to programatically copy a form from one database to another
using Visual Basic?

I would like to update the forms in a front end user database on a network
each time the user logs in.

uh use my automagic auto-fe updater

it's called 'Access Data Projects' and you don't have to worry about
bloated frontends; you can run them across the network (keep them all
in one place)

it works like a charm

MDB is a crutch

1) IMO, u could use CopyObject method in VBA, see Access help.
2) Instead of copying objects why don't you simply copy full FE MDB to
client's machine?

I am puzzled why I have been identified as Aaron Kempf. But, I am new to this
kind of thing (actively participating in on-line discussion).

Anyway, I assure you, my inquery is genuine.

Is there some way to copy forms from one database to another using Visual
Basic?

I apologize. From your perspective that was quite misleading. I'll have to figure
out a better appraoch.
