Hi Ian, I would suggest that you check on the actual name of your form -
Open the Form in Edit mode Right Click on any field Choose Form Make sure the General tab is selected Whatever is showing in the Name field is the name the system will look for If it's showing something other than 'Story', then that is your problem If not, then I don't know. It's odd that the error message is saying 'StoryTable' rather than 'Story' You may need to set a breakpoint in Sub OpenStoryTable(oEvent AS Object) and then single step through the code to see exactly where it throws the error. That may give you a clue as to what is happening. Good luck!
