Can't add Subform

[jmmm]

Hi, I'm new to this and this stuck me as strange.

I created a Form, and dragged 2 tables onto it to make 2 subForms.
I changed the Field names in one of them, subsequently these display
as #Name?

However the table itself was fine. So I deleted it from the Form and dragged it on again. In doing so, the Subform/Subreport Wizard tells me 'A form with the same name already exists.'

But it only existed until I deleted it, surely ?

I'm going to delete the whole Form and start again, but it's wasted an hour and I wonder why Access thinks it exists, when it doesn't.

Is there any explanation ?

Thanks.

When you add a subform Access creates a subform control and a new form object as the source object of that subform control.

Deleting the subform control does not delete the form object. Look under the list of forms and you will find it.

Nice there's an explanation - thanks.

The 'List of Forms' - is that the list of Forms in The Forms tab
of the database window ? I can see no other list anywhere, and it ain't there! I see no sunforms there, actually.
