2007 -not all table fields show in reg View

Hope someone can help me with this....
We just upgraded to Access 2007, we are opening a DB created in 2003 and
leaving it as an .mdb file. This is a simple 2 table DB used for inventory.
When I open the table, there are 45 fields in design view - but only 33
display in the regular table view. I haven't found a common setting yet???
Does anyone have any idea what might cause that? or how I can correct it?
The data is still there - when I open the reports/querries it is OK.
We have staff pretty nervous about this upgrade, so I'm hoping for a quick
fix before it becomes an issue... Any help/suggestoins greatly
appreciated!!!!
Thanks for time and help!!!!

Hi Cindy,

Open up the table in datasheet view and right click on one of the column
headers and choose 'unhide columns'.

HTH,

Thank - you!!!!!
Sounds like an Excel function... I didn't even know that Access had column
hide capabilities.

Thanks again - you made my day brighter!
