#Name? Error in calculated Field

[Braveheart]

I have a simple access database which up until now was working as it should. Then i made a Backup of the database Named it something different deleted certain data from the backup and when i went back into the original DB i now have #Name? where it used to calculate 2 fields.

I have searched for a solution but nothing has worked. Nothing has changed on the original DB.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

This doesn't seem right.

If you made a backup, and changed something in that backup, HOW could it be changed in the original? Seems to be a logical inconsistency. Perhaps your recollection of events is playing tricks on you.

Before deleting anything, it is good practice to determine and analyze what deleting such items would affect. You do the analysis, evaluate the implications and make an informed decision.
