Are you by chance using Access 2007? And as Ken said, normally one would open a report from a form, not a form from a report.
But, I'm guessing you are using 2007 which has events like a click event for a control/section in reports now. The error you are seeing is most likely because you have put something somewhere where it is not supposed to be, or have used the wrong syntax.
Can you provide a few screenshots of your macro in design view so we can see the action and arguments (open the builder, or Zoom box, if necessary to show the entire argument).
