I just finished touching up my form. Everything was working perfectly the way I was planning. I wanted to add one more aesthetic appearance by adding an image and only displaying it when the status of the form is marked approved. I added it and don’t think I accidentally changed some kind of setting when adding the image, but now when I open the form I get a "Runtime error 210: Access can't move the focus to the control Customer ID". I hit debug and obviously it takes me to the VBA line throwing the error, but that line, and every other line of code, worked before the image was added. If I stop the debugger, it will go back to my form, but everything is blank. Not just empty fields, but field labels and all are missing. I tried removing the image, but no change. Before posting this I searched for a similar question here and found a recent similar thread. One of the suggestions was described here: http://allenbrowne.com/casu-20.html, but that’s not my case. Please!!! Does anyone know anything else that can be wrong???
Why is form now blank
- Thread starter buratti
- Start date
OK, I figured it out. What I did was. When I added the image, I changed the name of the image in the property sheet and changed its visible property to no. But what I actually did was I inadvertently selected the detail/background section before those updates, and changed the name and visibility property on that instead of the image. I changed the visibility back to yes and now it works again. I actually found the solution/problem by mistake, that’s not what I was looking for when I found it. LOL
