Why isn't the data entered into the form staying in the form?

Forms don't store data, tables do. If your form is bound to a table then
the table should retain whatever data you enter into the form. If you have
your form in DataEntry mode it is intended only for adding new records and
will not show existing records when you open it.

If your form is not bound to a table then enything you enter into the form's
controls is discarded as soon as you close it.
