Form view vs Design view (again)

A

I'm working in Access 2000. I have two reports that appear to be linked, but
I don't know how.

If I go into Form View I get frmRetirementRespondent (which is what I want),
but if I go into Design View I get frmNeoRespondent. I've checked the
properties and everything points to either tblRetirementRespondent or
frmRetirementRespondent. I went to the VBA editor and checked the code and
didn't see
?Forms!frmNeoRespondent.Caption in there. Under Design View the Record
Source is tblRetirementRespondent and the Caption property is
frmRetirementRespondent. I've even changed the caption and it's still not
the correct form (frmRetirementRespondent). The command button that takes
you into the form has 'Command 107' as it's caption and record source
properties.

Short of recreating the entire form is there anything else I can do to get
the correct form?

When you are in form view, the text you see in the colored bar at the very
top of the form (the title bar) is the text that appears as the form's
Caption property. In Design view, or if the Caption is not specified, the
title bar contains the name of the form. The caption is completely
irrelevant to the data. The point of the caption is to identify the form
(Survey Response, Retiree Contact Information, or whatever).
