I have a user that is reporting they received the attached error from a data entry form. He claims that he began entering the record but became distracted by another matter. When he finally returned to the record the error was displayed. Additionally, he is claiming that his copy of the database has become corrupted and he cannot get the program to open and run.

I have not experienced this problem in any of the development testing that I have done for this form. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this problem, and/or potential fixes? Thanks in advance for any ideas that you can offer.

The DB is not split yet. We're still in the testing phase.

So you have all been using the same DB at the same time?
If you follow the instructions in the error window, what do you discover?

Since it is early in the testing, consider the merits of removing all spaces from object names. Instead of "Product <space> Types" - just have "ProductTypes" run together as one word that happens to have two capital letters.

As to the actual problem, if you are still testing, is there a chance that someone edited the .RecordSource to add an extra non-printing character in the name?
