List CommandBar And ToolBar Icons
Access Environment
'Code By Mark Phillips
'CafeCartel.com
'Instructions:
'Copy all of this code into a Module. To Run:
'Type CreateTestBar into your immideate window.
'Go back to the Access Shell to view the results
'Ever want to find a Icon that isn't listed
'when you are creating or editing a toolbar?
'I have, so I wrote this.
'The first function creates
'a toolbar that lists all of the possible icons
'that might be listed. They are indexed by number, i don't
'know how many there are, but I ran the check
'up to 5100.
'The second function is from a microsoft
'helpfile that checks to see if the db has a
'toolbar of the same name that you are creating.
'If there is a toolbar with the same name, it deletes it.
'I used a name that I don't think anyone will have.
'After you run the code. Go back to the access
'window and you will have a toolbar that lists
'numbers 1 to 100. Click on the first one and
'you will get a list of 1 to 50 that shows all
'the icons and their id. The same goes for the
'rest of the list.
You will first need to add a reference to your Access Database. In the code window goto tools-->References then scroll down the list and selectthe Microsoft Office XX.X Object Library. Where XX is the version number of your access database.
