Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) is the programming language provided with Office applications, such as Access 2002. The three types of programming structures used in VBA code are sub procedures, function procedures, and property procedures. You can think of these as your “bread and butter” for automating your database. This chapter covers the first two types.
