What is proper VBA reference for Trim function in Acc 2003?

Just because you're having the problem with the Trim function doesn't mean
that there's necessarily a problem with the actual reference that contains
the Trim function (which, for what it's worth, is the Visual Basic for
Applications library). References are like apples: one bad one can spoil the
whole bunch!

Open any code module, then select Tools | References from the menu bar.
Examine all of the selected references.

If any of the selected references have "MISSING:" in front of them, unselect
them, and back out of the dialog. If you really need the reference(s) you
just unselected (you can tell by doing a Compile All Modules), go back in
and reselect them.

If none have "MISSING:", select an additional reference at random, back out
of the dialog, then go back in and unselect the reference you just added. If
that doesn't solve the problem, try to unselect as many of the selected
references as you can (Access may not let you unselect them all), back out
of the dialog, then go back in and reselect the references you just
unselected. (NOTE: write down what the references are before you delete
them, because they'll be in a different order when you go back in)

Thanks. It was a missing SQL Parser reference. This "Compile All Modules"
sounds interesting. How do I do that?

It's on the Debug menu when you're in the VB Editor. Compile All Modules is
what the option was called in Access 97. Newer versions of Access only have
a single Compile option, which should be equivalent.
