VB Help Needed - PPT Error when loading VB code

Thanks in advance for your help!

I've been working on some VB code for the past few weeks. It's a
compilation of user form modules, class definitions, etc. Yesterday,
everything was fine and dandy. Today, I get an error that says, "Power Point
has an error it can't correct..." when I try to go into the VB Editor. Even
if I can't recover this particular file, I would at least like to try to pull
out all my VB modules I created, in hopes I can piece them back together in a
new file.

Any light shed on this subject would be awesome. Thanks again!

See if this helps:

I'd also try saving the file under a new name (File, Save As)
See if the newly saved version is better behaved.

Can you get into the VB IDE from a new blank file?
IOW, is VB broken, rather than your file?

If you can do that, then what about opening both a new and the problem file, new
file showing in PPT edit window, then try hopping into IDE.
