DOCUMENT:Q172167 01-JUL-2002 [accother] TITLE :ODE97: DOC: Code Example in NodeClick Event Help Topic Incorrect PRODUCT :Microsoft Access Distribution Kit PROD/VER: OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kberrmsg kbProgramming ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Office 97 Developer Edition ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills. SYMPTOMS ======== When you paste the sample code from the NodeClick event into a form's class module and then compile it, you may receive the following error message: Compile error: Event procedure declaration does not match description of event having the same name. This article assumes that you are familiar with Visual Basic for Applications and with creating Microsoft Access applications using the programming tools provided with Microsoft Access. For more information about Visual Basic for Applications, please refer to the "Building Applications with Microsoft Access 97" manual. CAUSE ===== The code example contains the following procedure: Private Sub TreeView1_NodeClick(ByVal Node As Node) Form1.Caption = "Index = " & Node.Index & " Text:" & Node.Text End Sub The data type of the argument that is passed to this procedure should be Object instead of Node. The subroutine also sets the Caption property of the undefined variable Form1. RESOLUTION ========== Edit the TreeView1_NodeClick procedure so that it reads as follows: Private Sub TreeView1_NodeClick(ByVal Node As Object) Me.Caption = "Index = " & Node.Index & " Text:" & Node.Text End Sub MORE INFORMATION ================ Steps to Reproduce Behavior --------------------------- 1. Start Microsoft Access and open the sample database Northwind.mdb. 2. Open a new, blank form in Design view, and don't base it on any table or query. 3. On the Insert menu, click ActiveX Control. 4. In the ActiveX Control dialog box, select Microsoft TreeView Control, and then click OK. 5. Set the Name property of the control to Treeview1. 6. On the Help menu, click Contents And Index, and then click the Index tab. 7. Search for "NodeClick event," and display the topic. 8. In the NodeClick Event topic, click Example. 9. Select the sample code and press CTRL+C to copy the code to the Clipboard; then, minimize the Help window. 10. Click View Code on the View menu. 11. Press CTRL+V to paste the code into the form's class module. 12. On the Run menu, click Compile Loaded Modules. Note that you receive the following message: Compile error: Event procedure declaration does not match description of event having the same name Additional query words: ====================================================================== Keywords : kberrmsg kbProgramming Technology : kbOfficeSearch kbAudDeveloper kbOffice97Search kbOffice97 kbOffice97DevSearch Hardware : x86 ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
