access_get_form_property

Close the COM session and release the .accdb file

Create a new control via COM in design view. Supports classname for ActiveX (type 119) ProgID initialization. Use type 128 (acWebBrowser) for native WebBrowser

Create a new empty .accdb database file

Create a new form without triggering the "Save As" MsgBox that blocks COM. Optional hasheader for header/footer section, recordsource (bind to table/query), defaultview (0=Single, 1=Continuous, 2=Datasheet, ...)

Create a relationship between two tables (supports cascade update/delete)

Create a table via DAO with full type, default, description and primary key support in one call. More robust than CREATE TABLE SQL

Delete a control via COM

Delete a module, form, report, query, or macro. Requires confirm=true

Execute multiple SQL statements in one call. Supports mixed SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE with per-statement results, stoponerror, and confirmdestructive

Run SQL via DAO — SELECT returns rows as JSON (limit default 500). DELETE/DROP/ALTER require confirmdestructive=true

Generate a Markdown index of all modules, forms, reports, queries

Export form/report/module as text via SaveAsText. Does NOT open Design view. UTF-16 LE output

Export an object's full definition as text

Get the full definition block of a specific control (finds controls inside Pages/OptionGroups)

Read a DB property (CurrentDb.Properties) or Access option (GetOption)

Import form/report/module from text via LoadFromText. Replaces if exists. Auto-splits CodeBehindForm VBA

Deterministic check for objectively-broken layout: contrast (WCAG), overlap, out-of-bounds, truncation, sibling inconsistency, zero-size/invisible. Returns verdict PASS/REVIEW/FAIL. Also runs automatically on every control edit

List all controls of a form/report with key properties. Controls inside Pages/OptionGroups include a parent field

List linked tables with source table, connection string, ODBC flag. name='X' returns one table; namesonly=true is a light listing (no connect strings — use it when hundreds of links overflow the result); maskpassword=true masks PWD=

List objects by type (table, module, form, report, query, macro, all). System tables filtered

List table relationships with field mappings and cascade flags

Change connection string and refresh link — auto-saves credentials (dbAttachSavePWD) when UID/PWD detected. relinkall=true updates all tables with the same original connection. refresh=true re-reads the schema using the table's own connect string (no newconnect, password never dumped)

Search text in the SQL of ALL queries at once (find which queries reference a table, field, or keyword)

Import modified text back (creates or overwrites)

Modify control properties via COM in design view

Set a DB property or Access option — creates the property if it doesn't exist

Set form/report properties (RecordSource, Caption, DefaultView, HasModule, etc.) via COM in Design view

Modify properties of multiple controls in a single design-view session

Show table structure via DAO (fields, types, sizes, required, linked status)

Append code at the end of a module. Auto-strips Option Explicit/Option Compare to prevent misplacement

Search text in ONE specific module. To search all modules at once, use accessvbesearchall

Read a line range from a VBA module without exporting the whole file

Get a procedure's code and position by name

List all procedures with their line numbers

Surgical find/replace within a procedure. Atomic by default (a failed patch writes nothing), case-insensitive anchors, optional requireunique, whitespace-tolerant fallback matching + contextual error messages when patches fail. procname='(Declarations)' targets the declarations section

Replace/insert/delete lines in a VBA module directly via VBE

Replace a full procedure by name (auto-calculates line bounds). Strips misplaced Option lines, runs structural health check

Search text across ALL modules/forms/reports in the database at once
