   Frank,   
   I fear you can't directly. In my experience this happened often, when I   
   tried (accidentally) to put static graphics into the form with more the 256   
   Colors.   
   Only thing I could do then:   
   Open the corrupted fsl-file in an editor (not Word) and look for the   
   methods. You'll see them among a lot of weird characters in clear   
   ASCII-mode.   
   Then you can mark and copy them to a new forms. So you at least save the   
   time to get the methods and procs back.   
   No chance - as far as I know - with the form-objects.   
      
   Viel Glück beim Sammeln. Ich mache jetzt täglich Backups.
