Double check the location of your class libraries and make sure they are included and in the same directories as your other libraries, or include their directories in the path. Probabl the reason it used to work is that the library got moved or the path changed somewhere else in the program.

Well, well well. Now I have traced this ridiculous problem to this.
If I remove the control source of one field it works. The field does
exist in the same table as others on this page and I can even substitute
another field from the table and the whole thing works. I have no
clue....

Go figure...
