Switchboard Label1 Missing

My switchboard comes up with QUIT in the label area on top of the selections.
I looked at it in design mode and it looked like Label1 was Quit and Label2
had the label I wanted. So, I deleted the label with Quit in it. Now the
switchboard won't start has an error "The control name 'Label1' is misspelled
or refers to a control that doesn't exist." Then when I click OK the error
box states the Macro name is Switchboard:Form:OnOpen:Embedded Macro,
Condition: True, Action Name SetProperty, Arguments:Label1, 9, quit, Error
Number: 2950
Can anyone tell me how to replace Label1 for the switchboard or get it to
look for Label2 to start with.

BUT FIRST ... I did a dumb thing, while trying to work on the above problem
I managed to hide the switchboard. How can I make it visible again?

Thank you so much!
 
What version of Access do you have? Do you have a backup copy of your
database, even if it is very old? If you do then open that copy in a
separate window.

Import the Switchboard form and table named Switchboard Items. Access will
add a suffix of '_1' to each.

Make a backup copy of your database.

Delete your old Switchboard form and table named Switchboard Items. Rename
the imported form and table by removing the suffix.

Try it.
