I am attempting to load from text files, queries into an MS Access Queries

  • 0

I am attempting to load from text files, queries into an MS Access Queries Collection using VBScript. I am using something like this:
The code originated from Here.

 for each myFile in folder.Files
    objecttype = fso.GetExtensionName(myFile.Name)
    objectname = fso.GetBaseName(myFile.Name)
    WScript.Echo "  " & objectname & " (" & objecttype & ")"

    if (objecttype = "form") then
        oApplication.LoadFromText acForm, objectname, myFile.Path
    elseif (objecttype = "bas") then
        oApplication.LoadFromText acModule, objectname, myFile.Path
    elseif (objecttype = "mac") then
        oApplication.LoadFromText acMacro, objectname, myFile.Path
    elseif (objecttype = "report") then
        oApplication.LoadFromText acReport, objectname, myFile.Path
    elseif (objecttype = "sql") then
        'oApplication.LoadFromText acQuery, objectname, myFile.Path
        ' Add create querydef code here
    end if

 next

But I am unsure how to create a query definition using VBScript.

Any ideas?

Note:
I originally Exported to the file using something like this:

For Each myObj In oApplication.CurrentDb.QueryDefs 
   Set f = fso.CreateTextFile(sExportpath & "\" & myObj.Name & ".sql", True) 
   f.WriteLine(myObj.SQL) 
   f.Close 
Next

    This saves the query defs

    For i = 0 To db.QueryDefs.Count - 1
        Application.SaveAsText acQuery, db.QueryDefs(i).Name, sExportpath & "\" & db.QueryDefs(i).Name & ".sql"
    Next i
    

    Then the LoadFromText should work
