The Find dialog derives at this command DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdFind towards the bottom just before the error handlers.
And according to the code, this Find command will always run since no If Then, Do While Loop, For Next, or Goto is wrapped around it.
Consider removing it, re-positioning it, or placing an Exit Sub before it if this Find command should be part of an error handle.

I learning how to use Microsoft Word wildcards and codes to help me in my position as a medical editor. A big part of my job is submitting manuscripts to medical journals for review, and each journal has very specific requirements.
Most of the journals we submit manuscripts to require that medical terms/phrases be abbreviated only if they are used three or more times. For example, the term “Overall Survival” can be abbreviated to OS if the term is referenced at least three times in the text. If the text only mentions “Overall Survival” once or twice, it is preferred that the term remain expanded, and it should not be abbreviated to OS.
We have been using the PerfectIt system, by Intelligent Editing. This Word widget scans for abbreviations that are only used once and will flag them for our review, but does not pick up if an abbreviation is only used twice in the selected text. We are hoping to find some solution (my thought would be some sort of wildcard search or macro) that will be able to detect if an abbreviation is used only one or two times.
I saw this similar post on stackoverflow, but it seemed to do with code. I will need this to be on a company computer that I do not have administrative access to, and furthermore, I know nothing about code. I appreciate any help, guidance, or directions for further research!
Thank you!
Edit: I could use a wildcard search to make all of the two+ capitalized letters highlighted by using <[A-Z]{2,}>, then formatting them as highlighted, if this would help with any macros.
For any given abbreviation, you could use a macro like:
Sub Demo()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim i As Long
With ActiveDocument.Range
With .Find
.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Text = InputBox("What is the Text to Find")
.Replacement.Text = ""
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindStop
.Format = False
.MatchCase = True
.MatchWholeWord = True
.MatchWildcards = False
.MatchSoundsLike = False
.MatchAllWordForms = False
.Execute
End With
Do While .Find.Found
i = i + 1
.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
.Find.Execute
Loop
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox i & " instances found."
End Sub
For PC macro installation & usage instructions, see: http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
For Mac macro installation & usage instructions, see: https://wordmvp.com/Mac/InstallMacro.html
Provided there's at least one occurrence of the abbreviation in parens you could use a macro like the following. The macro checks the contents of a document for upper-case/numeric parenthetic abbreviations it then looks backwards to try to determine what term they abbreviate. For example:
World Wide Web (WWW)
Naturally, given the range of acronyms in use, it’s not foolproof and, if a match isn’t made, the preceding sentence (in VBA terms) is captured so the user can edit the output. A table is then built at the end of the document, which is then searched for all references to the acronym (other than for the definition) and the counts and page numbers added to the table.
Note that the macro won't tell you how many times 'World Wide Web' appears in the document, though. After all, given your criteria, it's impossible to know what terms should have been reduced to an acronym but weren't.

I encounter a real difficulty in tracking changes and updates in the company models.
I research the tool abilities a lot, but still didn't find the golden way that match my requirements of:
Provide indication where was a change
What was the change
Keep the original model state, aside to the up-to-date state
EA offers the following ways:
Baselines
Version Control
Clone
Change Elements
None of them provides indication on what exactly was the change and where.
What is the easiest way to manage the changes effectively?
You forgot the last resort: audit. Turn on auditing and you can get a lot more information. Of course this also has its drawbacks
it uses a lot of space
there are still changes that are not tracked in the detail you might need it.
Turn it on at Project/Auditing. More information here.
Additionally you could think of writing triggers, but I would not recommend that since it makes your repository almost unmaintainable.
Auditing is of course also no silver bullet. Tracking changes is tedious. And personally I would not spend too much effort in this "accusation mode". Better spend your energy in driving the model towards the company goals. Nobody needs yesterday's model.
I wrote some scripts to handle change management in EA.
The idea is that the user links the changed items to a change request element that represents a workitem, project, change request, bug,...
Each link contains the date, user and a comment for the change to that item.
The scripts are part of the open source EA VBScript library:
The main script is the following
'[path=\Projects\Project A\A Scripts]
'[group=Atrias Scripts]
!INC Local Scripts.EAConstants-VBScript
!INC Atrias Scripts.Util
' Script Name: LinkToCRMain
' Author: Geert Bellekens
' Purpose: Link Elemnents to a change

I have the code below in a button in my forms in MS Access. The problem is that sometimes not all "strCTRL"s exist. In some forms they do, in some they don't. The whole code is 900+ lines long so I won't post all of it. It's a SQL query which references controls and extracts their value.
The problem comes when not all controls are present, then I get the error: Compile error: Method or data Member not found.
Is there a way to bypass the compile error or tell VBA to compile it only if it exists? I tried If...Nothing and On Error Resume Next, but they don't seem to work. There's also other objects that will not exist on each page, not just the ones below. So...any ideas? =/
Dim strCTRL1 As String
Dim strCTRL2 As String
Dim strCTRL3 As String
Dim strCTRL4 As String
Dim strCTRL5 As String
Dim strCTRL6 As String
Dim strCTRL7 As String
Dim strCTRL8 As String
Dim strCTRL9 As String
Dim strCTRL10 As String
DoCmd.SetWarnings False
On Error Resume Next
strCTRL1 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Text684.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL2 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label2210.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL3 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label2295.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL4 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label73.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL5 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label160.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL6 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label246.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL7 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label332.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL8 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label417.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL9 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Label506.DefaultValue & " "
strCTRL10 = "[Control Number] = " & Me.Text2285.DefaultValue & " "
You can create an array or list of the label names, then:
Dim LabelName As String
Dim LabelNames As Variant
LabelNames = Array("Text684", "Label2210", ...etc.)
' ...
LabelName = LabelNames(1)
strCTRL1 = "[Control Number] = " & Me(LabelName).DefaultValue & " "
That will compile, though - of course - fail at runtime for non-existing labels.
OK, thanks to #Gustav, you got your code to compile, and his suggestions, combined with On Error Resume Next will get your code to run without errors under any circumstance.
But there is no way to tell if your code is correct, because now, the compiler won't tell you which controls are misnamed or missing.
So instead, I would suggest an array-based approach like this:
Dim Ctl As Access.Control
Dim CtlValues() As String
Dim i as Long
i = 0
ReDim CtlValues 1 To Me.Controls.Count
For Each Ctl In Me.Controls
If Ctl.ControlType = acTextBox Then
i = i + 1
CtlValues(i) = "[Control Number] = " & CStr(Nz(Ctl.DefaultValue, "Null"))
End If
Next
ReDim Preserve CtlValues 1 To i
These 12 lines of code perform the same task that the 900 lines do (going by your example). This code will work in any form, regardless of how many controls there are, and what they are named. This code is way easier to understand and work with.
See if maybe an approach like this will work here.

I am open to any suggestions.
After searching the forum, I haven't found any questions/answers quite like mine.
I have a main form with four different search fields - last name, city, phone number, and ID. I want to have a search of any of these fields (or combination of these fields) to find all records in the subform with a matching value - regardless of which field that value is in (i.e. there are multiple address fields in the subform, so the city could appear in any of these).
Additionally, if a Last Name AND City are entered I only want to return records in the subform that include both values.
Thank you in advance!
I don't think this can be done without employing VBA. You would need to add code to the AfterUpdate event for each search field's control on the main form that would subsequently update the subform's filter. I'm not sure how complex filters are allowed to be, though, which could be a problem because it's going to be a monster of a filter.
Here's an untested example that uses placeholders for the potential number of different fields in the subform (as you indicated there could be multiples of any of them) and assuming your phone number and ID are numbers and that your search controls have data validation in place to ensure that:
Private Sub last_name_AfterUpdate()
Call FilterSubForm()
End Sub
Private Sub city_AfterUpdate()
Call FilterSubForm()
End Sub
Private Sub phone_number_AfterUpdate()
Call FilterSubForm()
End Sub
Private Sub ID_AfterUpdate()
Call FilterSubForm()
