Database suddenly not allowing any edits

[tagteam]

I have a database that I have been working with for years. Suddenly it wont allow me to make any changes in the properties box. When I open up the properties everything is blank and if I try to click anything to add and event or anything it will not do anything.

Has anyone seen this before?


Thanks

No.
Go to backup?

Restart your computer.

I can restart my computer but it works fine in my other databases and older versions of this database work as well. As Welshgasman said, I went to an older backup but was hoping that there was something I was missing that I could fix so I wouldn't have to redo my work. I have about half of it done but if anyone knows of a fix it would be nice to know for the future.
Thanks

You could attach the file with how it works so you can directly see what can be done.

I cant post it, my boss wont let me. I will just have to update the old one and make sure I get a lot of backups

Your db is split into front and back ends, yes? In that case all you lose is whatever you last saved as a copy.
If you're doing a lot of design changes because it's a work in progress then you should be backing up about every hour or so.
If your db is not split, then you have a larger issue, or one day will create a much larger issue when you lose all your data because of something like corruption.

yes it is split and I do backups twice a week because I don't do a ton of changes to it so I was able to grab one that is not too old. I have never had that situation happen before so I was just wondering if anyone else had and if there was a fix for it.
