This happens every now and then, the "Error loading file message". Unfortunately, VFP does not give many clues as to why. This happens when I try to open the form.

Here's the whole error:

"Error loading file-record number 4. FA_NEW1 .
Loading form on the data environment: expression evaluated to an illegal value."

I have already opened (hacked) into the form as a DBF file and have looked around. I do not readily see anything that would cause any problems.

I am sure that everyone has run into this. I will also PACK the table and maybe even try to compile it as well, but I think I've already done both actions. What else can be done? Oh, by tthe way, the FA_NEW1 is from a Visual Class library and it is a form that is easily opened in the Visual Class Designer.

What else can be done?
