Is there a #Include statement or Macrocompiler in Access?

Hi,

Is there a possibility to #Include code text or declarations of specific
variables in Access. Most other langues that I know do support also a
macrocompiler, where coding can be included into a procedure and optionally
pass parameters that affect the compiler input.
 
#Include does not exist, however if you're wanting to reuse code between
*.mdb files including the same CONSTANTS, you'll want to investigate
using a *.mdb file as a library file. I've never done, but have read
that it is possible. If I recall correctly, all of the various wizards,
including the ZOOM box are done via library files.

No.

In addition to what others have said, the best you get in
VBA is the #Const And #If, #Else and #End If conditional
compilation statements. No #Include, no substitution, nor a
true macro capability.

There are also a bunch of methods on the module object for
code manipulation, but those are one time, design time
operations.
