Run-time error 2001 & cannot open form in design view

Guest

After saving some design changes on a fairly complex form I am now getting
run time error 2001 and the form will not open. It will not open in design
view either. I had only added a label and changed some formatting before
saving the design change. This has happened before on this same form and I
retrieved the old version from my back up. Has anybody else experienced
this? Is there possibly a limit to how many sub-forms can be on a form that
may be causing this?

Ernie,

I'm having the same problem with a main form that contains 10 tabbed
subforms. I'm able to open the subforms by themselves but can't open the
main form in either design or form view. Did you ever decide what the
problem might be?

jtb3,

Unfortunatly I never did figure out what was causing this as I haven't had
the need (nor the time!) to change that complex form since that post.
However, at that time I did make the same changes to my back up form and it
worked just fine. Go figure! Sorry I cannot be of more help.
