Issue Tracker Template download

L

LadyDi

I am new at this but I downloaded the Issue Tracker template and it works
great but I have renamed it and everything in it. Now when I open it the
Access name changes to Issue Tracker and I get an error message of "The form
name 'Issues' is missspelled or refers to a form that doesn't exist".

How can I get it to open with the new data base name and get rid of the
error message?

LadyDi,
There is most probably code is looking for objects (forms,reports, controls, etc...)
that have been renamed, so it fails. Sounds like the code is looking for a form called
"Issues", but can't find it. Did you rename a form called Issues to something else?

Not sure what you mean by... "renamed everything." Is that really true? Did you
change the names for tables , forms , queries, fileds, etc...?
What do you mean by... "the Access name changes." Do you mean the filename, a form
name, the verbage up on the Title bar... please be more specific.

Rather than try to guess where the problem/problems are, I would suggest that you
re-download the template and start over. Leave all the names as they are for now, until
you get totally familiar with all the objects and all the code.

Look in tools>startup for the display form/page and change that to whatever
you renamed the 'Issues' form to. There's also a place in that same area
(tools>startup) to give the application a 'name'.

Honestly, if you really went in and just made wholesale name changes to
forms and reports and such, you can expect more error messages.

If it ain't broke, why fix it? :)

What I suggest you do is go into the VBA and do a whole sale search for
"issues" by doing CTRL+F.
