Aaarrggghhh! Maybe I've just got lucky, but until now I haven't had such a
seemingly unrecoverable form corruption error...
I have a reasonably complex form (data-binding to sub-controls, events,
etc), which was working fine... until about an hour ago... Now, although the
form works fine when playing the app, whenever I go into the form designer I
get:
==============
One or more errors encountered while loading the designer. The errors are
listed below. Some errors can be fixed by rebuilding your project, while
others may require code changes.
The designer loader did not provide a root component but has not indicated
why.

question is:
"Does anybody have a clue where to start with this?"
I'm happy to start hacking the code, but with hundreds of lines it's a bit
needle/haystack. Curiously, I can *sometimes* get into the form if I have
just finished debugging, but not always - and it inevitably dies again when
I build, so not much help... I don't really fancy restarting my form from
scratch, and I seem to get the same issue with various archived VSS
copies...
Has anybody resolved this or similar before? Any common causes? (there's
little chance of me reproducing it in a "simple" version, so the question is
more general than specific).
Cheers in advance,

For ref, I eventually got the form working again by carving huge chunks out
of the initialise method and into separate controls which are only loaded at
runtime (and not design time).
I still have no idea what the error means or why it happened...

I have had a very similar experience - I converted a solution from VS2003 to
VS2005 and everything seemed just right. The application converted without a
problem, and it ran fine. But once I started modifying a form I started have
some problems in the InitializeCompo nent() method also. I had to back up
and continue developing it in VS2003 for the time being.

If 'frmMain' is set to open by default at startup none of the buttons

Hi!
I have a reoccuring problem with one of my databases where forms will
occasionally become corrupted. Since I have backup copies of my

However, I would like to prevent the problem from happening in the

Why does this happen? I had just entered some code and when I saved the

I know, I should save often, but I was on a roll.
But why does it do this. Sometimes when I just close a form in design mode
with the close box it does this. Closes the whole instance of Access.
Anybody got any ideas as it is so intermittent and I can't find...

Since upgrading one of my clients from A97/W2000 to A2003/XP they have
suffered no end of data corruption problems, mainly involving one of
the main tables. The corruption can result in one record's fields
turning into chinese characters. On running the compact/repair I can
see that the corruption may be deeper than I expected because sometimes
indexes are missing and need to be replaced.

Hello,
I have a form that seems to corrupt over and over again. I can't open it in
design view, usually getting a message like "There isn't enough memory to
perform this operation. Close unneeded programs and try the operation
again.". I can get to the code but can't seem to do anything to get into
design view. The thing I thought about at first was the number of controls
on the form; there are about 320 controls, but that is still...
