Using a centralized VBA module in multiple Access databases

Don’t worry, it’s quite simple.

  1. Make your “helper” database. Put a few procedures in there.
  2. In your ‘client’ databases, open the VBA Editor
  3. Go to Tools->References. Browse and select your helper database.
  4. Done! You can now use all the functions in your helper database throughout your client databases.

So… no .dll files to worry about. No Visual Studio needed.
