 Somehow you appear to have a source code alias named "seeker", which is
 odd. It should be something like "MyCustom" or something.
 
 Go to the menu (with nothing open no form designer, etc.), and select
 "Properties", and "Desktop Properties" under that. Find the tab for
 "Source Aliases" and change in the list, find "SEEKER",  change it to
 something that makes sense *for you*.
 
 Once you do that and save/close the dialog, open your custom form files
 in the Source Editor, and change :SEEKER: to :whatever_you_named_the_alias:
 
 You may also need to alter some of your other forms, if you have any, in
 the same way.
