Misspelled Form Name

OK, I admit that I did a really dumb thing! I realized after my
project was almost done that I had used bad naming conventions, so I went
through and renamed my form, table, and all references to the form in my
macros. Now, every time I open something I get the "misspelled form name"
error message. Is there an easy way to find my mistake? I have looked and
looked and don't see it. Boy, I'll never do that again! Thanks!

Here is a site where you can get a pretty good search and replace utility. I
used it for excactlty the same situation recently. I needed to change the
name to get a form, several reports, and a bunch of queries changed. This
did the trick

Hey, thanks a million, Klatuu! I actually fooled around and found
another way to do it, too. I ran the documenter under analyze and saved it
as a text file. Then I went in and did a find on part of the name. It
turned up. Can't wait to try your link. I really appreciate your help!

How's Gort? (one of my favorite movies ever!)

Gort is in Anger Management therapy. That Death Ray thing was really getting
out of hand.

Reminds me of the old (1930's??) New Yorker cartoon. Two guys in a
Manhatten skyscraper office, with "Patent Attorney" on the door.

One is standing at the window with a futuristic weapon, aiming it at
the streets below, saying "Death Ray? Fiddlesticks! It doesn't even
slow them down!"
