I made some changes to some code, debugged it, created an MDE. and now the MDE does not function properly, the form that the code was backing does not display and the MDB File where Im debugging that problem is where Im getting the error. (While im in the code and working in the form)

Also, what error message (or messages) did you get?

Sounds like the common 2501 error which is triggered when you cancel the opening of a report or other DoCmd action. All you need to do is place an error handler in the event or procedure that is raising it:

Private Sub MyProcedure()
On Error Goto ErrHandler

  'code that triggers cancel error

ExitHere:
  Exit Sub
ErrHandler:
  If Err <> 2501 Then
    MsgBox "Error occurred: " & Err & "-" & Err.Description
  End If
  Resume ExitHere
End Sub

John - I think that would be "You cancelled the previous operation"

Do you have a timer interval set? Sometimes the debugger acts crazy when you have a timer event firing.

I have timer events, none of which are in the active form or should be firing.
