Can't edit FORMS in .ade

[AllanBowker]

I am a new user to .ade files (projects I believe)

Although I have knowledge of MS Access v2 things have moved on quite a bit!

All I want to do is add a field into a table and display it in a form in my database.ade file.

My DB was an existing DB on the MS-SQL server.

I have added the field into the DB and can see it when I view my table in my .ade front end.

OK so next step for me was to edit the form to display the field to the user. Unfortunately when I go to FORMS and right click on the form I want to edit, the DESIGN VIEW option is greyed out.

HELP! How do I edit my form?

Allan,

An .adp file is a standard Access Data Project. An .ade is an Access Data Executable. All code has been compiled and removed. You will have to edit the .adp file that this .ade was created from.

Sorry.

Thanks, this has helped a lot.

I have found the .adp file!
