Looping through records

Hi all access gurus,

I know nothing about access and would appreciate any advice. I have created a table and want to loop through the recordset and access one particular field for every record. How can I do this in vba

TIA, Ayesha

Ok here goes

' Declare you variables
Dim dbs as database
Dim rst as recordset
Dim Counter as integer

' set up a updateable recordset of your table
Set dbs = CurrentDB
Set rst = dbs.openrecordset("SELECT * FROM [YourTableName]", dbopendynaset)

' find number of records in your recordset
counter = rst.recordcount

' loop until run out of records
while counter > 0

with rst
' sets your field to date for example
![fldYourField] = Date
end with

' moves to next record
rst.movenext

' one less record to go
counter = counter - 1

' start loop again
wend

This will set all that field to the current date in all the record in that table, hope this was what you where looking for.

Mitch.
