I need to reach the db.containers for documentation as txt files. I
have the necessary code that works within the db but I need to get it

I'm not sure what the problem is. If you have a reference set to DAO 3.6,
and you create a dao.database variable and Set it by OpenDatabase, then you
can do anything with it that you could do with one set to CurrentDB.

I don't really understand the question, so it might help to restart with an
explanation of what doesn't work, any error messages, and the relevant bit
of code that you have tried.
