What gives? I've been using Access for a few years - thought I knew a little
about it, apparently I don't know much. Anyway - I'm creating this little
form to enter data from, but for some reason I can't delete or cut anything I
but on the form. I went and opened up some forms that I created a long time
ago and I can't delete anything on those forms either? I've never seen this
one before. I've created some fairly comples forms in the past that had all
kinds of functions on them. Something got me locked out. I went through the
repair function twice but it didn't help.

Thanks
 
Some checks you can do:

1. Is the file "Read" attribute set (to True)?

2. Do you have Read/Write permission on the database file?

3. Do you have (Access) permission to modify the Form(s)?

4. Try creating a Form with some Controls. Save this Form. Re-open in
DesignView and try deleting a Control. Try also deleting this Form.
 
Thanks Van,

My problem turned out to be hardware or driver related. For some unknown
reason - if I leave my flash card plugged into my USB Reader it causes this
problem. Someday when I fillingt really down on myself I'll try and figure
that out. For now - I just don't leave the card in the reader.
