How to List All Modules and Macros in an Access Database
Last updated by David Wallis on 2024-05-30.
VBA Function to List All Modules
This function lists all the modules in the database in which you execute it:
Function fnDmwListAllModules() As String
On Error GoTo errHandler
Dim msg$
Dim obj As AccessObject, db As Object
Set dB = Application.CurrentProject
For Each obj In db.AllModules
Debug.Print obj.Name
Next obj
msg$ = "Module listing complete"
procDone:
fnDmwListAllModules = msg$
Exit Function
errHandler:
msg$ = Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
Resume procDone
End Function
VBA Function to List All Macros
Don Hirst suggested I include a function to list all macros in a database. And he kindly provided me with one. Here it is:
Function dvhListAllMacros() As String
On Error GoTo errHandler
Dim msg$
Dim obj As AccessObject, db As Object
Set dB = Application.CurrentProject
For Each obj In db.AllMacros
Debug.Print obj.Name
Next obj
msg$ = "Macros listing complete"
procDone:
dvhListAllMacros = msg$
Exit Function
errHandler:
msg$ = Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
Resume procDone
End Function
Thanks again Don.
How to Run Your Functions
To execute the function, copy and paste the code into a module in your database's Visual Basic Editor.
Then in its Immediate Window type ?fnDmwListAllModules() or ?dvhListAllMacros() and press Enter.
Don't omit the leading question mark.
