Error Using Access 2010 Contacts Database Template

[jcbhydro]

Good evening,

I used the Contacts Database Template to import a comma delimited txt file of contacts data.
The template included a number of tables, queries, forms & reports which I did not require. I deleted them leaving only a Table entitled 'Addressbk'. I added an Entry Form using the standard access tools and this works fine with the table.
However, on running the access database I get the following error message; 'The form named "Main" is mis-spelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist.
My only form is labelled 'Entry Form', so it would appear that one of the forms I deleted must have been named 'Main'.
If one ignores the error message the database & entry form function perfectly.

Any advice to assist me to correct this annoying error would be gratefully received.

Regards,

Hmm, sounds like that might be the Start Up form either set by a Macro or under Options. I would first look under File > Options > Current Database. If you see the Form there under *Display Form* just select *None*. If it is a Macro then you should check to see if it does anything else... if not, just delete the Macro.

Many thanks Gina,

I had investigated the macro possibility, but the problem didn't lie there. However, your alternative suggestion was correct. 'Main' was selected for form & web display under options. I deselected those and all is now fine.

Your prompt and accurate analysis was much appreciated.
