Form Will Not Open

[surfdragon]

Hi. I have recently had to take over the maintenance of some of our work databases from someone who has now left.
I've had to make some changes and have encountered no problems. However, I have now had to change a form completely. On 2 of the databases this has not been a problem, I've just dropped a new form into the split database renewed the links and all good. But on the other database although I've carried out the same actions all I get is the message

The form name 'frm.......... ' is misspelled or refers to a form that does not exist.

The rest of the database works fine. But as soon as I click on the button for the form this is the message I get. The form will not even open correctly in design mode.
Any help would be appreciated, sorry its so long!

I suspect that the form is corrupt. Does each user have a copy of the front end on their machine linked to the back end.

These are the masters I am presently working on. Nobody has access to these except me. But when they are populated yes there is a link to all the front ends for the workforce.
I did wonder if the form was corrupt, but I have taken a copy that I know works in other databases?

Have you tried to import the form from one of the DBs where it is working

Just doing exactly that!!
If that doesn't work I think I'm going to have to 'make' a replica and do it the long way
