Is there anyway to check for whether a particular form is open in macros programming environment? I'd like to use it as a condition for a macro in a form

Thank

You can do so via code and then run the code from a macro, example:

1- Create the following function in a module

Function TestForForm (frm As String)
IF CurrentProject.AllForms(frm).IsLoaded THEN
TestForForm = 0
Else
TestForForm = 1
End IF
End Function

2- Now in your macro have for the condition

TestForForm("the name of your Form")=0


I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.
