I had createed a form in Acces 03, used it for about 1+ years. Then it was
gone.
I have recreated the form each day for the last 2 days. When I start my day
the form I created the day before are missing. WHY? how can I make it stop
doing this?
 
Not the data is missing there are forms in the form Tab. They are not
hidden, they are gone!! the data is still in the table, all quires are
there, the reports are there. The form is missing or gone.
 
Sorry to horn in on this thread, but I am having the same or similar problem.
I created this form in Design View, but when I switch over to Form View, my
form is gone. All I have is the blue background color I selected for my
form. All the fields are missing. Interestingly, I have data in my tables,
just no form in which to enter data. When I switch back to Design View, my
form returns.

What's the form's Recordsource? This phenomenon will occur when two things are
true: the recordsource is not updateable, so you can't see the blank new
record; and it doesn't return any records, so you can't see them either.

Try opening the recordsource in query datasheet view. Does it have any
records, and does it have the *> icon marked "new record" - or is it also
blank?
