Hello,

I was working on my Db when all of a sudden it crashed. I saved a backup
and closed it down. I opened the back up and now on my main " Job
Information" form, almost all of my text boxes with equations display
"#Name?". Some of the text boxes reference other tables, some other forms,
and some the same form they are located on. I checked the data source an a
select few boxes and all the data, according to my table, is correct. Its
worth noting that the entire DB was working perfectly before this crash.

Now if i go into design mode for the form, delete any text box, then
using the "add existing field" menu drag the text box back onto the form, All
of the text boxes including the one i draged in will then display the correct
data. I then save the form, save the database and close it. When i open it
back up however, all the boxes display #Name? again. Ive also noticed that
before the crash the file was around 8mb now its 1.6mb. Is there a way to
restore the DB to its working form? What happened to the other 7megs of my
data?
