Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.

This article applies to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb) and to a Microsoft Access project (.adp).



SUMMARY
In Help in the Visual Basic Editor, you see methods, properties, events, and statements that apply only to the UserForm object. However, even though it is possible to create and to use UserForms in the Visual Basic Editor, it is recommended that you not use them with Access. Instead, use Access forms.



MORE INFORMATION
You receive the following error message if you try to use a UserForm method, property, or statement on an object other than the UserForm (for example, a Microsoft Access form) in Visual Basic for Applications code:

Run-time error '2465':

Application-defined or object-defined error

Using the following methods, properties, or statements on objects other than UserForms will cause the error:   Methods ---  Hide PrintForm Show WhatsThisMode

Properties --  StartUpPosition WhatsThisButton WhatsTHisHelp

Statements --  Load Unload NOTE: The Load statement and the Unload statement of UserForms are not to be confused with the Load event and the Unload event of Microsoft Access forms. The syntax contained in the Help topics for the Load and Unload statements do not work with Access forms.
