MS Access Forum / Modules / DAO / VBA / February 2005modules in a library DB reference an instance defined in main DB
Modules in a library database should be able to reference an instance of a class that is defined in the main database There is a trick to making classes in library MDEs available in the main database.

But that would apply in any case, i.e., even within the main database you couldn't instantiate an object and then use that object within another routine, unless the object was declared globally. I haven't tested it, but if the object is declared globally in the main DB, it might be accessible within the library DB. Nevertheless, passing a reference to the object would be better in practice.
