Name conflicts with existing module error

[Guest]

I am updating an Access 2K MDB (split between front and back-end), that began
to return "Error accessing file. Network connection may have been lost."
errors. When opening the database while holding down the <Shift> key, I
don't get the errors.

There don't *appear* to be network problems currently, so working on the
assumption that the MDB is corrupted, I attempted to "Compress & Repair" and
was unsuccessful with both the internal and external methods. The external
executable can't even open the file.

I then exported yesterday's modifications (forms & modules) to an empty MDB,
and attempted to import them into a older (still functioning) version of the
original file, and at that point found that I'm receiving "Name conflicts
with existing module, project, or object library." errors for each form and
module. Checked MSDN's KB and wasn't able to find anything specifically
addressing this issue. I tried deleting the pre-existing versions of the
forms and modules with no luck, and as I write this, it occurs to me that I
should try to change the "Project" name also.

Doesn't anyone have any other thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I spent about a week trying to import 2 new reports from my test.mdb to the
production mdb. Each and every time I received the error: "Error accessing
file. Network connection may have been lost." No amount of repairing or
compacting would make the mdb useable again.

Even the RESOLUTION section of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304548

would cure the problem. I had to recreate the reports from scratch since
importing resulted in corruption.
