Thanks,
Sorry, I posted it on an Excel-newsgroup but it should work in Access. ( The
response is much faster in Excel-newsgroups)
My solution now is limited to Belgium ( stays inside VBA's level ) and the
user gets a msg that there is no check on foreign bank nummers.
For the present Company that is no problem.
I have now 3 functions to check IBAN and Check Bic individualy and one to
find the Bic from the IBAN in a table (BicFromPrefix) I downloaded from the
national Bank Belgium !

Why overflow-error on mod-function ???
Arguably a bug in Excel. Decimal support has always been pretty flaky.
Public Function CheckIBAN(ByVal strIBAN As String) As Boolean
'1. BE62510007547061
'2. 510007547061 BE62
'3. 510007547061111462
'4. De modulus 97 (remainder of div 97) 510007547061111462 /97
remainder =
1
[snip]
IBANtotalNum = CDec(strAllDigits): MsgBox "decimal = "&
IBANtotalNum
iModulus = IBANtotalNum Mod 97
It still fails if you use IBANtotalNum Mod CDec(97)
I am afraid CDec in Excel is something of a half hearted bodge.
Mod converts them back to 64bit double precision reals and is just about
smart enough to notice that there are not enough mantissa digits to get
the answer right.
The following code should be OK
IBANdiv = IBANtotalNum / CDec(97)
iModulus = IBANtotalNum - Int(IBANdiv) * 97
I suspect the division here is still flaky but it only has to get the
right number of multiples of 97 to subtract. Multiply and subtract
appear to honour the variant record type declaration as CDec correctly.
You may need to add additional protective code to avoid similar overflow
problems if the IBAN numbers can get much bigger.
Hope this helps.

IBAN numbers can be large enough to overflow the CDec logic. At
present, they can go up to 32 digits plus a two letter country code.
Since the validation algorithm calls for substituting two digits for
each of the letters, we are at 36 digits, well outside VBA's level of
precision even with CDec. And they could grow longer.
There is a free Excel add-in: xnumbers.xla which can handle extended
precision, and a few months ago I proposed a solution which used this
and also required coding a lookup table so as to get the appropriate
specification for the appropriate country.
