ACC1x: Index Example Incorrect in "Introduction to Programming"

Q109823

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

Page 113 of the Microsoft Access "Introduction to Programming" manual describes the Seek method of finding records. There is an example on that page that includes the line 


   Cust.Index = "[Company Name]"

to set the index. This line results in the error message "'[Company Name]' is not an index in this table."


RESOLUTION

The line that sets the index should not include brackets. The correct line should read: 


   Cust.Index = "Company Name"


STATUS

This problem no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 2.0.
