How to List All Modules and Macros in an Access Database

Last updated 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.
