Corrupt Form in Access
Rob Hall 

16 months ago
I have created a form that allows users to import files and export them after some processing. I only have one form with a lot of tables and queries. I finished the project and it all was working fine. I then commented out an error handler to do some testing and recompiled the code. After I did that, I could no longer open the form. Not even in design view. I cannot get the code window to open either. I do not have a backup! I tried compact and repair and now I get an error saying not enough memory to perform this operation. I tried decompiling and get a message to click ok to delete all code so I cancel out of that. I cannot get to the code or open the form in any way. All of the other tables and queries open fine. It is just the main form that is corrupt.

@Rob You may want to try creating a new .accdb and importing only the necessary stuff to run the form. See if that does the trick.
Then import the rest. I've had situations like this, and I can only guess that something internal in the .accdb gets so corrupted that repairs and decompiles just don't fix it.
