V-Tools

Hi all,

Some time ago I installed V-Tools, (I don’t remember where I picked it up from — there’s a chance it was here, but a search yielded too many results to check), and I find it really useful. Especially because of the “Work on Queries”/”Work on SQL” form:

Work on Queries
Using this tool, you are able to work on SQL statement for all your queries in the same time.
Search for a string or perform a ‘search and replace’ in all the queries.

Hope this is not a duplicate post and that you find it just as useful.

V-Tools was mentioned by unkamunka in 2006: V-Tools Freeware Utility (2.0 – 2003).

It has since been updated to support Access 2007 too, so it doesn’t hurt to draw attention to it again.

Good.

I started in my current job in Oct-2006, and some time later (I guess a couple years later) I found the Access Tools | Addins menu, which was populated with what I thought were several Microsoft add-ins, such as the Solver or Analysis Toolpak add-ins for Excel. As I became more dependent on the Work on SQL tool, one day I sought it in my home computer, and to my surprise it was not there, nor could I locate the XLA equivalent for Access. So I started investigating what was going on and it dawned on me I had installed V-Tools at work, but who knows when.

I see unkamunka’s post dates from Apr-2006, prior to me starting this job. Normally I remember when I did what, so this is a little bit puzzling, but well… I’ll have to live with it!

What matters now is that V-Tools is here to make things simpler.
