Newbie Q. for referencing DAO recordsets with VBA in Access front

Hi! I am brand spankin' new at this and need help! We just upsized an
Access 2002 database to having an MSDE backend. We used Access's wizzard.
In general, the forms seem to be working fine. My problem is with the VBA
underneath. The code breaks when it tries to work with recordsets. I get a
runtime error, "Item not found in this collection." Between the text book I
have and my web searches, I can't seem to figure out how I need to reference
the SQL tables or if there is a reference library that I need to activate to
make this work now. I have a lot of code like this and for the time being I
am not interested in converting it all to ADO. That can come later. I just
need to get this functional for the client.
Any help appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Andrea
YOu sure have to be a more specific to solve solve your problem. When does
the error occur ? Can you send some code and point out what fails. The error
sounds like you are accessing a column which doesnt exists in the returned
recordset. If you are using a view and you designed t with the view
designer, keep in mind that sometimes the columns are renamed to something
like "expr1" and so on. Another possible error could be that you want to
access a provider specific property which you copied from some example but
isnt supported by that provider.
Send in some information and well try to help you.
