UseLongFileNames Property
You can use the UseLongFileNames property to specify or determine whether long file names are used when a document is stored as a data access page. Read/write Boolean.
expression.UseLongFileNames
expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Remarks
The UseLongFileNames property uses the following settings.
| Setting | Visual Basic | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | True | (Default) Use long file names whenever possible when you save the document as a data access page. |
| No | False | Use the 8.3 DOS filename format. |
The UseLongFileNames property is available only by using Visual Basic.
If you don't use long file names and your data access page has supporting files, Microsoft Access automatically organizes those files in a separate folder. Otherwise, use the OrganizeInFolder property to determine whether supporting files are organized in a separate folder.
Example
This example cancels the use of long file names as the global default for the application.
Application.DefaultWebOptions.UseLongFileNames = False
