This morning, I got this error

Error accessing file. Network connection may be lost

no matter what I was doing on any form. So I opened a blank database and imported everything. Some error occurred but it said that the import was successful. I was able to open my form again. Then I went back the old copy and then I got this error when I try to open the database

The database cannot be opened because the VBA project contained in it cannot be read

Even the backup I did before the first error is saying that now.

and I tried to import again and I got the error while it was importing.

I’m getting abit nervous now, plz tell me there’s a way to fix this

thank you

    You can try decompile when Access complains it can’t read the VBA project code. See the two answers to this SO question for detailed instructions: HOW TO decompile and recompile.

    If decompile is unable to restore your application to good working order, the quickest solution is probably to revert to your last good backup copy.

    If you’re willing to put in extra effort to recover module changes since the last backup, check whether you can still access the module source code. If the source code is readable, you can use the undocumented SaveAsText method to dump the code to a text file:

    Application.SaveAsText acModule, "Module1", "C:\SomeFolder\Module1.txt"

    Then later load it into a new db file with the LoadFromText method.

    Application.LoadFromText acModule, "Module1", "C:\SomeFolder\Module1.txt"
