hi,
i would like to check my database to see if a specific objest exists. if it does, i want to delete that object and import a new one from another database. i.e. forms, tables and queries.

One approach is simply to try deleting it and trap the error that occurs if the object doesn't exist.

Danwo,

If you're looking to update your users' frontend file, it might be simpler to over-write the entire frontend with an auto-updating utility like this one.
