Strange Problem With Form

I have a database that has been in use for a long period of time as an
mde without giving any problems. I've just started making some
changes to the main form which consists of a continuous form with 5
subforms in the footer.
The problem that I'm having is this: If I try to add a new text box to
either the detail section or the header section of the main form,
after I save the form and try to reopen it I get a bogus "out of
memory" error. The form then won't open in design view (same out of
memory error) and still won't open in either view if imported into a
clean database. I decompiled, compacted, compiled and compacted
again, to no avail.
After deleting the form and restoring it from a backup and doing some
experimentation, the form will allow me to add a new text box to the
detail section if I copy one of the existing text boxes and use it.
The form would appear to be at least partly corrupt but the problem
only manifests under the conditions outlined above. I realise that the
reason for this strange behaviour is probably obscure, but what sorts
of things can cause this type of problem?
.
