'Loose' declaration 're-discovery'

I just want to share what I have 're-discovered'... Its a disadvantage of 'loose' declaration of objects...

Case 1:

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim x As New ADODB.Recordset
    Set x = Nothing
    'Will return false
    MsgBox x Is Nothing
End Sub
 
Private Sub Command2_Click()
    Dim x As ADODB.Recordset
    Set x = New ADODB.Recordset
    Set x = Nothing
    'Will return true
    MsgBox x Is Nothing
End Sub

Case 2:

VB Code:

'In Form1
Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Form2.ObjectsAreLoaded
End Sub
 
'In Form2
Option Explicit
Private adoRecordset1 As New ADODB.Recordset
Private adoRecordset2 As ADODB.Recordset
 
Public Sub ObjectsAreLoaded()
    'Will return false = means object is instantiated
    MsgBox adoRecordset1 Is Nothing
    'Will return true = means object is not yet instantiated
    MsgBox adoRecordset2 Is Nothing
End Sub

In case anyone is wondering. That is because when you use loose binding, as soon as you reference the object, VB checks to see if it exists. If not then it creates it, which is why, as dee-u has shown above, you cannot test to see if it is Nothing, because even if you have explicitly destroyed it when the test is executed the object is created.
