I made a change to one of my main forms and now it will not
open. If I issue modi form xxx, I get a syntax error message
and the form will not open.
I only added two fields and can't figgure what I screwed up.
Is there any way to edit the .scx or otherwise make this thing open ?

thanks for any suggestions.
 
Since the form is a table you could use it as a table and browse through the records to see what went wrong.
USE myForm.scx
BROWSE
 
The .SCX is just a table... you can
USE formname.scx
then
BROWSE
and make whatever changes you like... each object on the form has one record in the table;

Use the ObjName memo field to identify the object, and delete the two you added; see if it loads now.

(Always make a backup of your SCX file First!)
