User Access Control

I am using the GBL_Access_Level script (Gobals) and I am getting the error of:

error Ambiguous name detected: set_access

On the following sub:

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Dim ntlogin As String
Init_Globals ' initialize the global variables
ntlogin = Environ("Username") ' get the username of person logged into
computer
GBL_Access_Level = Nz(DLookup("Access_Level", "L_Users", "UserName='" &
ntlogin & "'"), "None") ' lookup the access level in our users table
set_access (GBL_Access_Level) ' call the function to set the security on
the tabs and forms

It verifies using the script:
Option Compare Database

Global GBL_Access_Level As String

Public Function Init_Globals()
GBL_Access_Level = "None"
End Function

Public Function Get_Global(gbl_parm)
Select Case gbl_parm
Case "GBL_Access_Level"
Get_Global = GBL_Access_Level
End Select
End Function

Somehow I started getting an error when I added a new user level. I've
added and changed user levels in the past with no problems, but something I'm
doing now is giving me a major headache!!! Now when it verifies user, I get
this error and I cant figure out why. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Thank you,

Bill

Chris, thanks for the assistance. I searched for all instances of
"set_access" and see it is listed twice. Once in the script I copied below
and the other in the verification of access rights for each user. I've
copied the 2nd below. I've added the Option Explicit to the top and tried to
compile but no such luck. Thanks for your help. Bill

------------ Additional VBA ---------
