Hi

Iv got a problem with opening a form named DriverDetails. I opened fine
earlier but now when I double click it nothing happens. So I
right-clicked it and clicked open and it shows a message "You cancelled
the previous operation"

Then I clicked it a few times and edited the form name and then it does
not allow me to change the name showing the following messages

"You cancelled the previous operation"
"Module Not found"

Has anyone any ideas what the problem may be.

Any help is much appreciated
 
What ever you changed, you must change it back to its original form.

Sometimes you can't change the name of forms or other information as coding
is written against the form. When you do this, you generally create problems
of your description. Your best method to recover from this is to import a
copy of the form from your backup file.

You do have a backup, don't you? If you don't, lesson learned. Never make
changes to something until you have made a copy of the database for safe
keeping. Especially, if you are new to Access. I am a veteran coder and I
still make backups regardless how confident I am.
 
Thanks for that, Actually I have got a backup but it is not uptodate,
just needs very minor changes. So I delete this form and import one
from the backup.

Thanks
