Hi Karl,
It happens, most times, When I'm changing from View to Design mode with any form in the db but not every time. It's a bit like Russian Roulette. You just never know...
The db was first started around 2013 and has been reliable until recently. A suggestion that an Office or Windows update might the cause was made on the Access World Forum. I followed an instruction to remove an update but that had no effect.
I would be grateful for any help.

Hi Karl,
I did create a new db and imported all the objects into it. The same result.
The database isn't compiled so I did a few Compact and Repair attempts with no effect.
I created a new db and a new form and haven't had the problem so far.
Since your last reply I have been substituting forms from previous aschives and got back to 2019 before the problem went away. Which is odd considering the bug only started a few days ago.
Now, I'm going to return to the troublesome form and start removing objects to if I can identify the nasty bit.
When, and if, I find something I will let you know.
Thanks for you help and suggestions thus far.
