from table to form

I'm adding rows in my form: just adding up different characteristics for
listing them up in the merge report. But when i rearrange the rows in my
table it's not reflected in the form: it's still the same old table
arrangement. The form doesn't see my new table. What can be done? I'd
appreciate some help.
I can't sort records anywhere except in the table. In the form
window I can highlight rows whatever is appropriate for each client and then
press 'add' button (that's how I'm adding them up for each client). In the
form, under the window, there are names of clients. I press on the client i'm
interested in, then highlight some rows in the window, then on 'add' button,
then i see all highlighted information appear in the field corresponding to
this client under the window. As i said before my new table arrangement
which is supposed to appear in the form window, is not seen there.
 
Not sure what you are asking. A form uses data from a table, but a form is
NOT the table. If you change a table, that does not do anything to the
form. If you make a change to the table, then you would need to go make a
similar change to the form. They are two different objects.
 
Hi Rick,
I can see my table in the form window where i can highlight different rows.
Then these highlighted rows go into a detail line, where there are: id#,name,
(it's already populated when i open the form with all the clients i have in
my query) and a 'characterictic' field - it's empty and that's where i
put/add highlighted rows from the window(table) in the form. I highlight
these rows myself according to what i know about these people. When I go to
my original table and make some small changes, somehow I don't see them in
the form window, what I see the old table content.
Thanks
Alex.
