Tables/Forms missing during development

[H. Orellana]

I just finished adding a sub-form along with making a change in some VBA
code. When I closed the VBA editor, *all* the forms were gone!!! Last
time this happened, I lost all my work. This time, I noticed that it
occured, and I copied the temp file to a new file. I didn't loose
anything this time, but what is causing this?

Thanks,
Enrique

What version of Access? I've had trouble occasionally with Access
2000, XP and 2003 with the Database window coming up empty: showing
none of my forms (or reports).

However, I've always been able to get the Forms back by simply
switching to another tab (Tables or Reports say) and then back to
Forms. They're still there, just not shown.
