I can't even open my db, keep getting 'Program has performed illegal operation' . But I can open holding shift key. I was coding some controls in a form when the error came up first time. Now I can't do ANYTHING with this form, can open in design view, but when I go to look at code the error shuts me down. Tried to delete and cut form from database window but nothing, just the error and I have to shut down program. What the hell is going on? Please help me. Really don't want to redo whole db.
 
Sounds like you have something going on within a startup page.

Use the shift method to get in. Look for a startup form. See what, if any, code is running in the class module for that form.

Try to export the startup form to an empty database.

Try to import the startup from FROM that empty database.

Look on the web for some of the Access database tools folks have written to help recover damaged databases.
