Visual basic allows you to manually reduce the scope using the WITH
construct eg:


Set rstSources = MyDb.OpenRecordset("Sources", dbOpenTable, )
With rstSources
        .AddNew
        !Name = NewSource
        .Update
        .Bookmark = .LastModified
        AddSource = !SourceID
End With


This eliminates the need to type the variable name over and makes the code
easier to read.
