I'm trying to use the following code to determine whether I need to drop an
old view prior to creating a new one. Can anyone tell me why it fails?

   Application.RefreshDatabaseWindow
   DoEvents
   Exists = False
   For Each obj In CurrentData.AllViews
       If obj.Name = strObjectName Then
           Exists = True
           Exit Function
       End If
   Next obj

This routine may return Exists = False even when the view has actually been
created by earlier code.

The first two lines do not always work. Somethimes, I have to press F5 to
make the old view appear in the Database Window, before the routine can
detect it (which tells the VBA code that called it to drop the view).
Sometimes, I can repeat the execution of these two lines in Break Mode, and
the routine will work.

I'm now having to resort to error-trapping, which seems heavy-handed to me.
