The above program code is correct provided, there exists MyDatabase.mbd in C:\

If it exists try the following:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As Recordset
Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\MyDatabase.mdb")
End Sub

If the above works then it is a case of Scope rule. Get back to me.

Hi Friends
Actually I m working on a database project. I am using in this project D.A.O 3.6 Object Library. I added lots of forms absolutely for many purposes. Now the problem I faced is that for every form I have to write the following code.

Option Explicit
Dim db As Database
Dim rs As Recordset

Private Sub Form_Load()
Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\MyDatabase.mdb")
End Sub

I want to use one Module and set the above codes for all the forms.
I tried the following codes in Module but is showing "Error No 91"

Option Explicit
Dim db As Database

Public Function MyDataBase() As String
Set db = OpenDatabase("C:\MyDatabase.mdb")
End Function

Private Sub Command1_Click()
call MyDataBase
Set Tb = db.OpenRecordset("Select * From Table1")
End Sub

Please tell me any method that you think will solve my problem.
Regard,
Naveed

Couldn't you just create a Standard Module and write the code there as a function and then call the function on all of your forms? Still be some coding involved, but you'd only ned 1 line instead of 5 on each form. Maybe I'm wrong.

hi,

"Module"

Public db As dao.Database 'Declare variable for database connection

Public Sub connectdatabase()
Set db = DBEngine.OpenDatabase("C:\MyDatabase.mdb") 'Set the connection path
End Sub

"Form"

Dim rb As dao.Recordset 'Declare variable for recordset

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Call connectdatabase ' call the module
Set rb = db.OpenRecordset("table1") specidfy the table to open recordset
rb.AddNew
rb(0) = "1"
rb(1) = "Success"
rb.Update
End Sub
