Forms Disappeared?

I created an Access .mdb database. While I was on vacation last week, all of
the forms seem to have disappeared?

I have run into the situation before where things will not appear properly -
usually a restart of access, or even a switch screen/come back to the problem
screen will take care of that problem with no lingering issues. However, it
really seems like the forms are gone - when i go to VB editor, the form names
appear, but when i click on one of them, it says "The form name <formname> is
misspelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist."

I have two questions:

1. WTF? How do all of my forms disappear? Can I do anything to prevent
this in the future?

2. Can I copy and paste the forms from an existing backup? The backup is
only a couple of weeks old, so the forms are all current.

Please help.

I think you forgot the link?
