I was working on a form, back and forth between the design and open modes. I
dont know what I did to cause all the controls on my form disappeared when I
opened the form. It worked before.

I can open the form if I click the "Filter By Form" button in the toolbar.
Any helps will be appreciated.

The entire detail section of your form will go completely blank if there
are no records to display and no new records can be added.

For example, you can generate that situation if you set the form's Data
Entry property to Yes, and AllowAdditions to No.
