  1. Microsoft Access Using Visual Basic Routines

  2. Visual Basic Datatypes • Boolean • Byte • Currency • Date • Double • Integer • Long • Object • Single • String • Variant • Hyperlink

  3. Variables and Arrays • Use of “Dim” • e.g. Dim count as Integer • Use of “Dim” to create arrays • e.g. Dim intArray(1 To 10) as Integer

  4. Initializations • intVariable = 10 • stringVariable = “Hello, world.” • dateVariable = #02/02/2001#

  5. Variable Scope and Lifetime • PUBLIC: seen by all the procedures in that module • PRIVATE: can be referenced from within the module in which it is declared

  6. Selection Structures If <expression> Then statement1 statement2 Else statement3 statement4 End If

  7. Selection Structures Select Case <integer variable> Case <value 1> statements… Case <value 2> statements… Case Else statements... End Select

  8. Loops For <variable> = <start> To <end> statement 1 ... statement2 ... Next

  9. Loops (contd…) Do Until <condition> statement 1 ... statement 2 ... Loop

  10. Procedures <access modifier> Sub <procname>(<parameters>) … Code for the procedure … End Sub

  11. Data Objects • DAO = Data Access Object • RDO = Remote Data Object • RDS = Remote Data Services • ADO = ActiveX Data Object

  12. Useful DAOs • DAO = Data Access Object • Database • RecordSet

  13. Database DAO • Refers to the database open in the current workspace. Only one database per workspace. • E.g. • Dim db as Database • Set db = CurrentDb

  14. Recordset DAO • There exists one Recordset object for every recordset currently open. • A Recordset is the result of the execution of a query. • E.g. Dim rs as Recordset • Set rs = db.OpenRecordSet(“Login”)
