I have two databases running that both use a copy of the same form to control an external serial printer.
On the form is MSComm which sets up the printer, sends the data to it and what not.
I'm running into the problem that if a user has them both apps open then only one app can use MSComm.
What i'm hoping I can do is have the form in only one database but then if the user opens the second db app up I can reference the form in the first db to allow the use of MSComm in both apps.
Basically what im asking is can I have something like...
[DATABASE1][Forms]![Print_Form]!Module..
I've tried googling but got nothing.
Thanks
