Application.References (Access)
You can use the References property to access the References collection and its related properties, methods, and events.
The References collection corresponds to the list of references in the References dialog box, available by clicking References on the Tools menu. Each Reference object represents one selected reference in the list. References that appear in the References dialog box but haven't been selected aren't in the References collection.
MsgBox "There are " & Application.References.Count & " references."
