    Running Modules from the Database Window

    In every Access version I've looked in (97, 2000, 2003) in the database window the modules tab has a disabled run button.

    I would have thought there would be a procedure or function you could write which the run button would recognise. The last post in here disagrees:http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread528062.html. This run button does not appear for tables, queries and forms.

    Can the button really never be used?

    Many Thanks,

    Matt

      In Access, modules are never "run!" Modules, in Access, are meant to hold functions that are available application-wide. The functions are run by being called from within the database, with the data needed by the functions being provided at that time.

      Exactly what kind of task would you like to perform that doesn't require any input of data? Someone here can probably help you, if we know your goals!
