Public Variables

Why can't my Access 2002 application recognize public variables?

I have a couple variables that I want made available to the entire application. I have declared them as Public in the General Declarations section of the startup form for the application. When I try to use a SET to initialize these variables in the Form_Open event for this form, I get a runtime error 2465 that says &quot;<Application name> can't find the field <field name> refered to in your expression&quot;.

 
Hiya,

Think you've posted this at a later date and I've answered it, but define globals (or public's) in a module.

Module's are where you define variables or functions or subs that can be seen by the whole application.
