"field" is not an index?????

[Guest]

Help! I've designed a table with the first field, named "Unit" as an index,
duplicates OK.

Unit is defined as a text field, 12 characters long; Required = Yes; Allow
Zero Length = No; Indexed = Yes, (Duplicates OK); Unicode Compression = No

When running the following code, I get the message '"Unit" is Not an Index
in this table.'

Set dbDOB = CurrentDb()
Set recDOB = dbDOB.OpenRecordset("Test Table", dbOpenTable)
recDOB.Index = "Unit"

Is the problem the fact that I left duplicates as OK and that I should not
be using Seek on this table?

If you open the table in design view, and select Indexes from the View menu,
what do you see?

Oh! I never knew that was there!

I see a different name - now corrected and now working. Thanks for the
rapid response.
