Missing Form

I had to fix a problem with another users database because the .mde database
could not be created. I found the fix here under Security...do Alt + F11 and
check the code. It took me directly to the problem. I removed the code from
the form and was able to create the .mde file. I then wanted to delete the
form that the code was attached to. It isn't in the form list in the
database window. If I go to the VB code window and right click to view the
form it opens. I can look at the properties but there isn't any indication
of where it is or why it can't be found. This form isn't needed anymore but
I can't find it to delete it. Has anyone ever hidden a form somehow???

Thanks in advance.
 
When you delete a form, Access automatically deletes the form's module as
well. You need to compact the database to get rid of it completely:
Tools | Database Utilities | Compact

If you want do lose all the code in the form's module without losing the
form, you can set the form's HasModule property to No.

If you have hidden a form, you can see it again through:
Tools | Options | View | Hidden Objects
