G Guest Jan 9, 2006 #2 Just a guess, but it sounds like you might have opened the back-end (BE) file of a split Access application. The BE typically contains only tables.

V Van T. Dinh Jan 9, 2006 #3 Another possibility is that all the Forms have been marked as "Hidden". Use the menu Tools / Options ... / View tab / Show pane and check the "Hidden objects" option. Click OK to accept. Now check the "Forms" tab of the Database Containers window. If no Forms appear, it is likely that you wrong copy of the database, e.g. the back-end MDB as Tom advised.
