insert code into module from a form
I am using Access in office 365 and sql server 2014
I have a unbound text box where I have written updating code based on field values. I also created a button to copy the code to a clip board which I then copy into a module. Is there a way to copy the code straight to module? Or copy the code to a sql stored procedure?? If it is possible. How?

Microsoft Forms 2.0 object Library is not in my list of references. I am using Access in office 365.
Oh sorry didn't catch that. I never used VBA in Office 365. Would not believe it even is an option with the online editor. I use Office 365 but have downloaded Office 2016 as well for things I need automation.
Are you asking how to modify VBA Code in a running application? That's not a good thing to do regardless of the platform.
Perhaps I've misunderstood, however, so could you please explain further, and perhaps provide an example of what you're trying to do.

Edited Screen shot attached.
On left side of form is what we get. On right side of form is what we correct it to.
Text box at bottom of page is the code I wish to insert into an existing sql stored procedure. I want it to add the code not delete what is in the stored procedure already. My question is ... Can this be done?
Currently, I am clicking the copy to clipboard button I created (in Access 365) and pasting it into the stored procedure (in Sql). I am trying to automate this step.
I hope this is clearer in what I am trying to accomplish.
