    Form Error Message

    I am getting the following message on start up of Access.

    "The form name 'OpenUpFormF' is misspelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist.
    If the invalid form name is in a macro, an Action Failed dialog box will display the macro name and the macro's arguments after you click OK. Open the Macro window, and enter the correct form name"

    When I click OK, the box closes and nothing happens. No Action Failed dialog box opens. I did have a form by that name, but deleted it as it wasn't doing what I wanted. I deleted it rather than try to fix it.


    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Lee

    Check for a macro named autoexec that might be trying to open that form. Or it may be specified in Options/Current Database.
