Form not saving!

[branston]

I have a form which doesnt want to save!! when i click close it asks me if i want to save, when i say yes the box disapears, but the form remains open. This happens everytime i try and save. If i say no, it closes but doesnt save and i loose my work. Ive done this a few times now, and tried after exiting the database, but nothing seems to work. The really weird thing is is that its only that one form, all the others save fine!

Any ideas?

Sounds corrupted. Does it save if you just tell it to save without exiting?

I would try copying everything to the clipboard and pasting it into a new form.

might be a corruption of some sort - this sort of thing tends to get worse over time, so you need ot be careful

try copying the form within the database, see if that helps

you might find you need to recreate the form from scratch - although this can be a real pain

this is often the sort of situation where its worth creating a new dbs, and importing everything into it form the old one.

be sure to make a copy or two of the dbs in case anything else goes wrong

Thanks for your suggestions. Fortunatley it was very similar to another ofrm i had, so i deleted and started again. Seems to be fixed now, but ill be sure to look out for any other things like it.

Thank you!
