With the Database window open, select <Tools>/<Options>. then in the Dialog box, click the <View> tab. You will see a check box for &quot;Hidden Objects&quot; in the &quot;Show&quot; form. Enable the check box and click &quot;Apply&quot; - or &quot;OK&quot;.

Now the form is displayed in the DB window as a &quot;Shadow&quot; of it's former self. Right click the form, select <Properties> and in the next dialog box, de-select &quot;Hidden&quot;. Hey Presto! The form has returned to its former glory.

Don't forget to turn off the hidden objects again afterwards (unless you want them to always be visible!)
