Hi there

Is there a way to automatically update a form after I have changed the table
the form was based on (e.g., adding or deleting a field).

I know how to manually add or delete afield in the design view for forms.
Just wanted to see if there is an easier way.

Thanks!

Once your form is designed, you'll have to go back and make the changes
yourself if you alter the underlying recordsource.

This gives you the flexibility of making copies of forms, changing
recordsources between tables, etc.

You really wouldn't want this to happen automatically.
