How do you comment an MS-access Query?

Question

How does one add a comment to an MS Access Query, to provide a description of what it does?

Once added, how can one retrieve such comments programmatically?

Answer 1

In the query design:

• add a column
• enter your comment (in quotes) in the field
• uncheck Show
• sort in assending.

Note:

If you don't sort, the field will be removed by access. So, make sure you've unchecked show and sorted the column.
