"Module Not Found" Error

Hi everyone -

I came in this morning and found something wrong with the main form in the database I'm building. When I double-click on it, it's as if I'm clicking on white space - nothing happens at all. I can't open it in design view, either. When I try to open the form using a command button on another form, I get an error message which says "Module Not Found," and then it takes me into visual basic. When in visual basic, I then get an error between one and four times which says "You canceled the previous operation." I don't think I canceled anything, since I just opened the database - and I didn't build any modules for this database to begin with.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this form? This was the largest and most complex form of the database, and I'd really like to NOT have to recreate it from scratch.
 
Go to the design mode and click on the 'code' icon. The under debug, I think, look for compile and it will show you the line of code that starts the problem. If compile is grey, make a change in the code and then change it back. I think that will lead you to the culprit.

Here's some additional info - maybe this will help to solve the problem. I just created a new db and imported all of the old db's tables and forms. In the new db, when I try to open the form that wasn't working in the old db, I get a different error. It tells me, "The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Client DB Management Form.' Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly."
Any additional suggestions and solutions are much appreciated. . .
