Body
I started getting error 3048 - Can't open more databases. I seem to have tamed it by implementing a single, static database variable in a function "dbLocal()" after <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1833746/ms-access-is-there-a-significant-overhead-when-using-currentdb-as-opposed-to-db">David Fenton's example here</a>. I would still like to monitor the number of database references to see how close I am getting to the 2048 limit in Access. I have tried to use .Recordsets.Count but it always returns zero. How can I determine the reference/recordset count being used internally by Access? One place I've tried to look at it is in the "dbLocal()" function. Stripped down to less-than-bare-minimum here (in my code I use Fenton's full example), I'm trying this: <pre><code>Public Function dbLocal() As DAO.Database Static dbCurrent As DAO.Database If dbCurrent Is Nothing Then Set dbCurrent = CurrentDb() End If Set CurDb = dbCurrent Debug.Print dbCurrent.Recordsets.Count End Function </code></pre> but it always prints zero. Even if it worked, it's not what I really want, because (if I am understanding correctly) Access is maintaining its own accounting that includes references due to queries, combo-boxes, etc., whereas my static variable would only "know about" references due to VBA statements explicitly using this dbLocal() function. Is there a way to get a peek at Access' internal accounting to know how close I might be to exhausting the 2048 maximum? In case it matters: Windows XP Pro SP3; Access 2010 32-bit version 14.0.6024.1000 SP1 MSO 14.0.6112.5000.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
