Forms Not Showing Up

Ludwig Willems

2 years ago

Hi, I've been noticing more and more lately when I create a new form that it doesn't appear in the access objects window. If I close the database and open it again, it is suddenly there. Has anyone else experienced this inconvenience? Does anyone have a solution for this or know why this happens or how the problem can be solved?

not even with the following action in a form: Public Sub RefreshAll() ' Refreshes all database windows Application.RefreshDatabaseWindow End Sub

	Kevin Yip @Reply 2 years ago
This may be another glitch in Access. Press F5 to refresh the screen. Press F11 to close and reopen the navigation pane. Compact and Repair the database. If still not fixed, create a new database and import all your objects to it.

Yeah I've noticed this too. F5 always refreshes the window and shows it for me.

	Ludwig Willems OP @Reply 2 years ago
indeed, F5 solves the problem. Is this a bug in access now, this wasn't a few weeks ago, was it?

	Richard Rost @Reply 2 years ago
I've noticed this bug come and go over the years.
