table isn't updated

[Guest]

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.
I can sort records or change data in them anywhere only 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.
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 is known about these clients. 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 is the old table content.
I'd appreciate some help.
Thanks
Alex.

Reports have their own sorting and grouping.
