[AccessD] Access 2002 - Another way to lose your work

No good I'm afraid. Directly after opening an MDB file ? SetWarnings
returned a blank line. 

If I then type DoCmd.SetWarnings False, then ? SetWarnings still returns a
blank line.

If I type DoCmd.SetWarnings True, then ? SetWarnings still returns a blank
line.

As for my lost work, the fact that the list of changed objects opened up
when I hit the save button tells me that SetWarnings was True, but I still
cannot figure out why the one object (a form) got saved, and all the other
changes (to code modules) got blown away.

You can go into the immediate window and type ? SetWarnings

should return blank/nothing or False
