table properties?

[Guest]

I inherited a database and need to see how a person enters information that
gets stored into a table. This table is used by 12 other databases and
various reports, but one field is not printing that is pulling from this
table (i.e. some fields are blank).
How can I see this?

If the table contains some records for which a particular field is
blank, then that's what's in the table. If it's blank, it's blank. Are
you seeing values in this field when you look at it in one manner, and
not when you look at it in a different manner? If you open the Table
datasheet directly, is there data in the field? Under what
circumstances is it blank, if so?
