RepaintObject Method

Microsoft Access Visual Basic

RepaintObject Method

       

The RepaintObject method carries out the RepaintObject action in Visual Basic.

expression.RepaintObject(ObjectType, ObjectName)

expression   Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.

ObjectType  Optional AcObjectType.

AcObjectType can be one of these AcObjectType constants.
acDataAccessPage
acDefault default
acDiagram
acForm
acFunction
acMacro
acModule
acQuery
acReport
acServerView
acStoredProcedure
acTable

ObjectName  Optional Variant. A string expression that's the valid name of an object of the type selected by the objecttype argument.

Remarks

For more information on how the action and its arguments work, see the action topic.

Using the RepaintObject method with no arguments (the default constant, acDefault, is assumed for the objecttype argument) repaints the active window.

The RepaintObject method of the DoCmd object was added to provide backwards compatibility for running the RepaintObject method in Visual Basic code in Microsoft Access 95. If you want to repaint a form, it's recommended that you use the existing Repaint method of the Form object instead.

Example

The following example repaints the table Customers:

DoCmd.RepaintObject acTable, "Customers"
