Cannot open forms in Access 2007

I created a database in Access 2003 and have been developing it in 2007.

All has been well, but recently 4 out of 6 of my forms no longer open,
either in normal view or design.

I have run the Repair tool, no change.

The forms are linked directly to a table, no queries.

I would be grateful for any advice on solving this.

Try importing the forms from a new blank db in 2007. See if you can open them
then in designview. If that's works it might be some corruption.

You can also try to convert a copy of the db to 2007 format and try again.

I have had a couple of issues when working with 2003 db's in 2007. In some
way when you design in 2007 and add some code it looks like there is still
some changing going on under the hood that you are not aware of.

I have tried exporting the forms to a blank 2007 database and i get an error
message saying "There is no current record", then if i trry copying and
pasting i get an error message saying " There is not enough memory to perform
this operation. Close unneeded programs and try the operation again"

Have tried converting the database in 2007 a few times but still nothing.
Thanks for trying :)

Ok, try this.

Open the database but not the forms you can't get to open. Go to the VBA
editor (Alt-F11). In the menubar within the vba editor you should see the
designbutton as well. Try hitting it from there.

If you see the forms in the vba explorer try removing them from there and
see what you can com up with..

Just some tickers.... don't know if it will help.

No luck. Shame! Thanks for all the tips maurice!
I guess il just have to redo it, and get a copy of 2003 for home.
