I am all the sudden unable to modify some, but not all of my reports.
Forms and queried seem to be fine. I click on the design button and
nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your database may be corrupt. MAKE A BACKUP (but don't overwrite your
existing backups - you *do* have backups right? - you may need them!).

Then open the database and use Tools... Database Utilities... Compact
and Repair Database.

See http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/corruptmdbs.htm for Tony's
excellent corruption FAQ. If compacting doesn't work there are other
things to try (Decompiling, importing into a new database...)
discussed there. Good luck!

Thanks, John. I did have a backup, but all my databases were acting the
same. Turns out it was because I changed my default printer. Thanks
for your help. Judy
