I was big user of Access 2, so I am a bit rusty. My problem is to
effectively use the immediate window for debugging. I have forgotten
how to use the to find out the values of variables.

Clarification of Question by bdken-ga on 26 May 2005 09:30 PDT

Thank you for your comments they have brought back some of my memories
about coding in MS Access.  I still have a question as to where the ?
goes ( does it go in the immediate window or in the code itself?

Type a question mark followed by a variable or expression, such as one
of the following, then press enter:

? x

? x>10

? DCount("*","tblMyTable","SomeField=" & x)

? Forms.frmMyForm.txtLastName

? Answer.Good

True

Type the whole thing in the immediate window and press enter.  The
question mark is sort of like a "print" or "evaluate" command.  In
addition, you can issue commands directly by typing them in the
immediate window and pressing enter.  For example, if while debugging
some code, you are stepping through a loop that executes SQL
statements and you want to stop those pesky warning dialog windows
from appearing while you work with the code, you could type this
command:

DoCmd.SetWarnings False

Don't type anything in your code.  Just type the whole thing in the
immediate window.
