Access VBA Statement (Access 2000 - Vb 6.0) "Dim MyDB As Database"

[Guest]

I am trying to implement Article ID 31881 -How to use a record set to send
Outlook e-mail to multiple receipients in Microsoft Access.

I have copied the code suggested into a new module. However the compiler
does not like the first statement. (Access 2000, VB 6.0)

Dim MyDB As Database

The second statement is accepted!

Dim MyRS As Recordset

It looks like the "As Database" is not acceptable.

Can anyone help me as to what is incorrect in VB

Open any code module, Tools|References and make sure the box is checked for
'Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library'

Just a comment. It's not quite as simple as that.

If you're not going to be using ADO, uncheck the reference to Microsoft
ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library when you add the reference to DAO.

If you have both references, you'll find that you'll need to "disambiguate"
certain declarations, because objects with the same names exist in the 2
models. For example, to ensure that you get a DAO recordset, you'll need to
use Dim rsCurr as DAO.Recordset (to guarantee an ADO recordset, you'd use
Dim rsCurr As ADODB.Recordset)

The list of objects with the same names in the 2 models is Connection,
Error, Errors, Field, Fields, Parameter, Parameters, Property, Properties
and Recordset
