ok Maj, I already told you that custom classes can be substituted in an easier way. any beginner in this industry isn't gonna pay your food bill to receive a product they don't understand. ;) maybe I should just write that FAQ on class modules.

Oh my god, that is rich. I am standing by for enlightenment. Dude give it up. A hair on my ass has more knowledge on Access and VBA then you will ever have. Put up or shut up. I have not seen you drop a piece a viable code, it is a bunch of blah, blah, I think, blah. Look, I try to like you Adam and be on your team. seriously. But do not F with me. You will have to call the United Nations to get a binding resolution to keep me from destroying you. Besides that I am totally on your team and we are cool. I am Yoda and you are Skywalker so just listen.

Only SkyWalker knew when to close his mouth and open his eyes and ears. VBA_PhP has yet to learn that and I daresay he never will.

both of ours right?

by the way, if anyone with authority is reading this, will I ever have any privileges to post a faq in the appropriate place around here? I suppose it's about time to put something up worth while, at least to satisfy all the thousands of my critics around here.

Per Jon's advice, no weapons. So instead of light sabers, show us your true brilliance. Because all too often, you hide your light under a bushel and as a result, your bulb looks dim.

PLEASE do not. If anyone should it would be me. You could, but do you really think there is anyone who posts more about this than I do. If the plethora of code I have posted does not prove that, then have at it. I am sure it will be a enlightening. Take a look here. Make a treeview in one line of code. Is this in your skillset..
Here is the thing, we all have a skillset, but Access and VBA is not yours. It is mine. I have no idea about php so I would not even try. So stay in your swim lane. this is mine.[/QUOTE]

don't take this the wrong way Yoda, but do you realize that all programming languages are nothing by hierarchial patterns? that's exactly why the corporate people of the world will be able to automate code writing in the future, and thus turn the programmers into button clickers. I was sure you would've figured that out by now. no? but any FAQ that I post would certainly not be anything as complicated as a tree like that! I don't work with anyone that would understand even 10% of what you posted. I do have a custom-class example in PHP but I'd have to find the code to post it. but to give you an idea of the parallelism between 2 languages, how about this? (javascript and vba, no PHP here):
Code:
int x; (js).....dim x (vba)
int x = 1; (js).....const x = 1 (vba)
a js function:
Code:
function retVal() {
   int x;
   int ret;
      for (x = 1; x <10; x++) {
         ret = ret + x }
   return ret;
}
and the VBA equivalent of it:
Code:
function retVal as integer
   dim x as integer
   dim ret as integer
      for x = 1 to 9
         ret = ret + x
      next x
   retVal = ret
end function
does that help "enlighten" you, Maj? :) I hope I got all that right!

<edit>
maybe that should have been:
Code:
int x; (js).....dim x as integer(vba)
int x = 1; (js).....dim x as integer (vba)
            .......... x = 1 (vba)
