   Hi Jeanette:   
   One thing that happened to me recently:   
   I have a calculated field on a form. I changed some field names of the   
   associated table and when I reopened the form it came up in design mode   
   and displayed the problem (in the editor) that the field name was not   
   valid - normal & expected result. I then changed to the new field names   
   and I got a gpv. I next tried a diferent appraoch: closed the editor,   
   inspected the field and chose "define field", deleted the old names and   
   "copied" the new fields from the drop down list. I still got gpv's. I   
   ended up deleting the field and rebuilding it.   
      
   I guess my point is have you modified anything on the form? Perhaps   
   deleting and rebuilding will fix it.
