Crashing Access 2003 when opening Modules

Every time I try to open a module, Access crashes and when it restarts, it
insists on backing up my database to a different name. I can open the code
behind forms just fine, but when I try to open a module, it crashes. Is
anyone else having this problem? (I'm wondering if it's related to the
installation of VS.NET 2003).

Thanks in advance.

Most likely, the project file is damaged. Try to create new project and
import everything from the old one - most likely it will hang when importing
the module.

You may want to try to recompile as well. Sometimes it is
an error in a different module causing the problem and the
compile will help you locate it.
 
Hi,

Maybe you also need to check your mdb file. If unfortunately that file is damaged, you may try Advanced Access Repair at http://www.datanumen.com/aar/ This tool is rather useful in salvaging damaged Access MDB files. Hope this is useful.
