document the collection members (forms, modules, etc) as text files
utilizing Application.SaveAsText which I am finding may not be
possible. I am able to retrive the document properties but not their
contents as text. I was/am trying to make use of Arvin's DocDatabase
function which works if you use it within the database itself.


I don't recognise Arvin's DocDatabase. If I really wanted to document a
database, I'd use the built-in Database Documenter; if I really, really had
to program one from scratch, I'd use the DAO objects and probably format
the output using Print #. But only if I really, really, really had to.
Problem with re-inventing wheels is that they rarely come out round...

All the best
