Cannot Save as

[MatthewB]

I am trying to save a db as another name. I get the error message;
!
Could not find field 'kf_82_Services_ID'

I do believe Access might be say, "you have a reference to this field that no longer exists" .
Could this be right?
How would I find this reference?

Thanks

How exactly are you saving the db? If you don't try to use a different name, does the error go away?

Another way would be to create a blank database, name it, then import all your tables, forms,etc, into it.

Can you tell from the name which table might most likely hold that field? If so, you can get onto the Tools ribbon for dependencies to see what uses or references that table and what that table uses or references. That would take care of queries and relationships. Then you can do a "whole project" string search for that name to see if any VBA code names it, even in a string.

Yes, I can save the file. It is when I try to change the name.

I will check.
