This question was previously posted to another access.* discussion group,
but
I think this group would be more appropriate...
I'm developing a VSTO add-in for Access using the PIA for Office 2003
(i.e.
this is essentially a COM add-in). There seems to be a distinct lack of
events in the Access object model - the 'Application' object in
particular.
The only events I see do***ented for Access relate to forms and re****ts.
My
add-in needs to perform certain actions in response to the user changing
the
current database, but there doesn't seem to be any way to get a
notification
that this has occurred. In contrast, the equivalent add-ins I have written
for Excel and Word use the myriad events raised by these applications to
handle do***ents being opened, saved, etc. Am I missing something? I am
very
keen to avoid having to resort to a background thread in my add-in that
polls
Access to determine if the current database has changed.
