Adding fields into a form

[Guest]

I have a form made already and I've realized I've forgotten a few fields.
I've gone to the table and added the field, but when in the design mode, the
new fields are not there to add into the form.

Hi,
you have to manually add the fields. If the form is based on a query (which
is based on this table) then make sure you added the fields to the query as
well. Then you can either create textboxes and specify their control source
to be the newly added fields in the property window, or you can bring up the
field list from the view menu and drag the new fields on the form which
creates the bound textbox controls for you!

Good luck

The form is most likely based on a query, not a table.

Open the form's property box and look for the "data source" on the "data"
tab. Click the ellipse (...) to the right and it will open the query so you
can include the new fields.
