No, there is not. Did you have a backup copy of your db?

As Starman said, you can't restore a deleted form. However, if you do have a backup, like he asked, you can import the form into your current database from the backup. You don't have to use the backup except for importing the form from, if you have it.

Hi Boblarson and Starman

Thanks for your help, no I did not have a backup as I had only just created the form, about 2 hours work down the drain.

Most unlike me I usually back things up before I get a chance to do something stupid.

kindest regards

Tony

dont deleted objects get flagged with a ~ or something initially, in the object name?
Is it not possible to rename one of those to recover the object, especially if you don't do anything else before you try to recover the file.

a bit like undelete file schemes in windows.

I've not tried - just wondering?
