when I open Access, it pop-up a screen, says "the form name is misspelled or
refers to a form that doesn'r exist, if the invalid form name is in a macro
an auction failed dialog box will display the macro name and the macro's
arguments after you click ok", my problem is i been looking over and over
again in the macro and check all my form names, captions, i have no idea why,
is there anything i could do to? please help

I suspect it's giving you the error message because the form name is
misspelled... somewhere. Try holding down the SHIFT key as you open
the database to bypass startup code; look in Tools... Options...
Startup to see if there is a (nonexistant) form in the startup form
window; try editing the macro named Autoexec if there is one. Good
luck.

You're right, i fund the problem, i change one of the form name, and i forgot
to change it in the startup display form, thank you very much.
