    Error Message re Form I have deleted????

    I had a form called "client data" that I did not need and deleted from my DB. However, every time I open the DB I get the message:



    The form name "client data" is misspelled or refers to a form that does not exist"

    It is not associated with a macro but Access is apparently finding a reference to it somewhere when the DB opens. Trying to figure out where that would be.

    Than you and Merry Christmas.

    Suggest you check the startup form in Access options and the autoexec macro if you have one.

    Could it be that you had set that form to be the one opened by access when your db is first opened.
    If this helped, please click the star at the bottom left of this posting and add to my reputation . Many thanks.
