importing modules from a mde file

[jose aponte]

Is there a way I importing modules from an .mde file? I
have an application created in access and the .mdb file
was corrupted. I have all forms, macros and tables but I
need to recover the modules in order to make some changes
I need to perform in the application.

No, Jose, it is not possible to recover code from an MDE file, as all
editable source code is removed from the MDE at the time it is created. I
strongly suggest that you contact PK Solutions to see if they can recover
any of your module source code from a copy of your corrupted MDB file; they
seem to have a pretty good reputation in the Access news groups.

And it may even be possible to import the modules from the corrupted
database into a new database. I would suggest trying that too.

I don't think so, Ken. AFAIK, there's nothing that can be imported to
another database from the modules of an MDE.

Oops...I missed the "MDE" part of the post. Sorry!

import the modules

That part touches where I am, so here I ask about it.

No MDE in my case.

Relatively large front-end mdb, updates usually to code only,
therefore my copy of it exports its standard module to a file
to transmit via modem.
Mdb 'A" in destination computer downloads file;
"A" exists only for purpose of replacing module in
target front-end mdb "B".

I cannot find syntax to refer, in A's code, to **module** in B.

I'm sorry, but I'm not understanding your question? What do you want to do?

do?

To replace standard module, programatically.
To provide user-initiated, automated program update.

Since module cannot replace itself without crashing,
something external to it must do the replacing.
I cannot find how to refer to module in non-current db.
