Hi.
I need some help.
Every time I try to compile I am getting an error message "You canceled the
previous operation" - even if it's the firs thing I"m going.

Earlier I got an error that said 'couldn't find module'. I think I deleted
it because I wasn't using it. Can't remember.
I think I switched back to the macro so deleted the converted macro module.

I can't recreate it and the message isn't clear. It says it can't find a
module but doesn't say which one.

Am i beat?

several times then Module Not Found.

There are several things you can try, but let's do this first.
Create a new blank database and import everything from
that database into this new container. Make sure no Timer
events are running in this new database and then try to compile.
Any luck?

i can't even tell where the problem is because things that always work
aren't now.
trouble even closing the database.
=============
i'm importing right now.

well, it let me compile.
i'm still getting the "you canceled the previous.."

it seems to be all due to converted macros??

Sounds like some kind of possible corruption.
A decompile may be in order. Try this on the new database container:

Make sure Name Autocorrect is turned off and double-check your
References as well in the new container.

I hope everything starts working properly for you.
Always make sure to keep good backups and follow Allen's
suggestions on preventing corruption.

You're welcome for the help; it is my pleasure.
