MS Access Forum / Importing / Linking / June 2007Deleting a Report Before Using TransferDatabase
I am using TransferDatabase to import a report from another database. The report gets named with a 1 on the end. How can I delete the existing report first to prevent this from happening ? For tables, I use the following code. Is there an equivalent method for reports ? For Each tdef In db.TableDefs If tdef.Name = "TestTable" Then DoCmd.DeleteObject acTable, tdef.Name Exit For End If Next tdef You are trying to delete a report, and you are calling "TableDefs"? Tables and reports are two different types of objects. Regards Jeff Boyce Microsoft Office/Access MVP >I am using TransferDatabase to import a report from another database.

For the report I could not locate an equivalent for TableDefs i.e. ReportDefs. Could I simply type the following: DoCmd.DeleteObject acReport, "TestReport" > You are trying to delete a report, and you are calling "TableDefs"?
