If you use VB you can use the same syntax in VBA:-
On Error GoTo create_error
Set mapinfo = GetObject(, "mapinfo.application")
'create OLE app to communicate with
create_error:
' if you are here it means that the " GetObject call failed
' and so you will need to make a new instance using
' CreateObject
Set mapinfo = CreateObject("mapinfo.application")
mapinfo.do "close all"
mapinfo.do "set next Document Parent " & mapwin.Hwnd & " Style 1"
mapinfo.do "run application ""C:\winnt40\mapinfow.wor"" "
mapinfo.do "Create Menu ""MapperShortCut"" As ""MapInfo in Access97"" "
BUT! in VB I use an image window. This can't be used Access to support the
.Hwnd function I've had to use the Threed OCX (Additional OCX) as MapWin
