I never tried this before, so I named a couple of buttons and entry
boxes on a form with starting Capitals.  Sure enough, after I saved, then
opened the form, it complained.  But to fix it I didn't have to go into
the pga_forms table.  I just designed the form again, changed the first
letter to lower case, and saved then opened it.  Works like a champ.

If I didn't get that bug correctly reproduced, please file a report at
bugzilla.pgaccess.org, so we can address the problem in more depth and
off-list.
