    add-in


    Hi,
    scuse-me for my stupid question , but I don't understand the metodo to insert the add-in with access vba

    ''componenti aggiuntivi'' is ''add-ins''

    all the elements you see in this image are subroutines/forms created ad hoc for the data in the tables. how can i generate an entry like one of these to start my form?
    I would like to anticipate that in file-options-add-ins everything is empty

    thanks a lot for your help

    The File\Options\Add-ins is empty because those are not true add-ins but what you see is probably the entries\menus in a old MS Office Toolbar (pre-ribbon).

    other info that I don't know if it can be important or not:

    in the project all forms and reports are placed in the ''Microsoft Access Class Objects''; in Modules there is only one module with global variables was put in (three lines of commands)

    I agree with Gicu that what you're seeing is coded command bars. The explanation is right in the page of the link he provided:
    When you open a previous version Access database and you choose to display the ribbon, custom toolbars appear as groups on the Add-Ins tab. Each group in the tab corresponds to a custom toolbar, and each group uses the name assigned to the original toolbar. However, the toolbars must be visible in the legacy database or they do not appear on the tab.
    If you have access to the code, open a module and look for code that uses the word CommandBar or CommandBars

    I don't understand the original question. What is it you want to do, add a menu or menu item to what you've shown? If so, I think you'd have to find the code that creates one example of what you need and then add code to create that.
    The more we hear silence, the more we begin to think about our value in this universe.
