The last time I made some changes to our database and
distributed them across our network, the other users
received errors when trying to open various forms (the
command button would not work). This also was true for
buttons which closed forms (i.e. Main Menu and Quit).

All of the command buttons work on my PC, so I do not know
what the problem is. I tried editing the form on the
local PC and the newly installed command button to open a
form also gave an error.
 
I have had problems like that only if I had to distribute the database to people using older versions of Access. I develop in Access 2000 but some users are still on 97, sometimes I will have to repoint objects like macros, combo boxes and command buttons for these users... I assume you are putting it over a network share
What was the error when you recreated the command button? What happens if you create a NEW form and try to make the button again
Good luck Jim

Citrix for me, everyone uses the same file - makes it real easy
