Temporarily disable code execution for form design mode

[craigyg]

In short, the Access VBA that I've written is interfering with my designing and modifying some forms. I would like to pause code execution while I'm in design mode changing these forms. I went to the Visual Basic Editor and put it in Break mode but that didn't seem to do the trick. Any suggestions?

As far as I know if you are in Design mode then there is no code execution happening.

There should not be any code running for that form when you are in Design view, as Norie said.

Is the code originating elsewhere, eg in a Timer event on another form? If so, place that form in Design view too, then go to the form you want to work on and make your changes. Don't forget to reinstate the timer form afterwards...
