Hi to all. I have been renaming forms after combing 2 separate databases. On rename of frmSalesOrders to Sales Orders on open I receive error 'You cannot open this form as a standalone form'?

I want to rename:

frmSalesOrders to Sales Orders
frmSalesOrderDetails to Sales Order Details

Sample DB (Access 2007 attached).

I am miffed.
Thanks,
Phil.

Going from frmSalesOrderDetails to Sales Order Details would seem to me to be a retrograde step. I think what you really want to do is to change the Caption to Sales Order Details. Leave the Form Names as they are, as changing them will invalidate all previously written code.
 
Hi John. I agree. I merged an inventory database template i dowloaded with a sales one I developed. To have a standard naming convention i decided to rename my tables (as I broke the other one when trying to update to match mine :) ).

I will leave as is.
Phil.
