Within my database, I have a bunch of forms, tables, queries, and reports.
About 2 weeks ago i added a button to "Form A" (for lack of a better name
within this question). The button prints 2 reports. There was no problem
saving the updates on this form and the button and form were working
perfectly. Since that change 2 weeks ago, i have changed and saved many
different tables, queries, reports, and other forms, none of which has a
problem. Now, I am trying to create a new button for Form A. However, after
making the button and adjustments, it will not allow me to save these new
changes. I closed out without saving and tried something as simple as moving
a text box and it still will not allow me to save the changes. If i try to
copy and paste this form so that maybe it will correct the problem (i am
trying anything at this point) it won't allow me to and pops up with "Name
Conflicts with existing module, project, or object library." Does anyone
have any ideas?
 
Try doing a compact and repair. There is a limit to how many object you can
have and you eat up the quanity everytime you modify the form.
Compact and repair will not correct all ills, sometimes you need to copy
everything into a new form and delete the old.
 
I have been doing compact and repairs once a week due to the database size.
The second time i restarted Access i compacted and repaired it. I will try
the copy and paste method within from form to form.
