expression.ProcOfLine(Line, pprockind)
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Line Required Long. The number of a line in the module.
pprockind Required vbext_ProcKin d. The type of procedure containing the line specified by the Line argument. The constant may be one of the following values.
Constant | Description |
---|---|
vbext_pk_Get | A Property Get procedure. |
vbext_pk_Let | A Property Let procedure. |
vbext_pk_Proc | A Sub or Function procedure. |
vbext_pk_Set | A Property Set procedure. |
Remarks
The ProcOfLine property is available only by using Visual Basic.
For any given line number, the ProcOfLine property returns the name of the procedure that contains that line. Since comments and compilation constants immediately preceding a procedure definition are considered part of that procedure, the ProcOfLine property may return the name of a procedure for a line that isn't within the body of the procedure. The ProcStartLine property indicates the line on which a procedure begins; the ProcBodyLine property indicates the line on which the procedure definition begins (the body of the procedure).
Note that the pprockind argument indicates whether the line belongs to a Sub or Function procedure, a Property Get procedure, a Property Let procedure, or a Property Set procedure. To determine what type of procedure a line is in, pass a variable of type Long to the ProcOfLine property, then check the value of that variable.
Note The ProcBodyLine property treats Sub and Function procedures similarly, but distinguishes between each type of Property procedure.
Example
The following function procedure lists the names of all procedures in a specified module:
Public Function AllProcs(ByVal strModuleName As String)
Dim mdl As Module
Dim lngCount As Long
Dim lngCountDecl As Long
Dim lngI As Long
Dim strProcName As String
Dim astrProcNames() As String
Dim intI As Integer
Dim strMsg As String
Dim lngR As Long
' Open specified Module object.
DoCmd.OpenModule strModuleName
' Return reference to Module object.
Set mdl = Modules(strModuleName)
' Count lines in module.
lngCount = mdl.CountOfLines
' Count lines in Declaration section in module.
lngCountDecl = mdl.CountOfDeclarationLines
' Determine name of first procedure.
strProcName = mdl.ProcOfLine(lngCountDecl + 1, lngR)
' Initialize counter variable.
intI = 0
' Redimension array.
ReDim Preserve astrProcNames(intI)
' Store name of first procedure in array.
astrProcNames(intI) = strProcName
' Determine procedure name for each line after declarations.
For lngI = lngCountDecl + 1 To lngCount
' Compare procedure name with ProcOfLine property value.
If strProcName <> mdl.ProcOfLine(lngI, lngR) Then
' Increment counter.
intI = intI + 1
strProcName = mdl.ProcOfLine(lngI, lngR)
ReDim Preserve astrProcNames(intI)
' Assign unique procedure names to array.
astrProcNames(intI) = strProcName
End If
Next lngI
strMsg = "Procedures in module '" & strModuleName & "': " & vbCrLf & vbCrLf
For intI = 0 To UBound(astrProcNames)
strMsg = strMsg & astrProcNames(intI) & vbCrLf
Next intI
' Message box listing all procedures in module.
MsgBox strMsg
End Function
You could call this function with a procedure such as the following:
Public Sub GetAllProcs()
AllProcs "Utility Functions"
End Sub
