Adding Fields to Form Problem

114 New Member
Hello,

I recently added an additional field to an EMPLOYEE table within my database. I already have a form set up with all fields from the EMPLOYEE table in which you can edit all fields.

The problem is that my newly added field does not show up in my field list (so I can't add it to the editing form). Any ideas on how to get this field onto the form? Thanks.

If it's not showing on the field list this probably means that the form is based on a query rather than the table. Open the form properties and go to the record source. Click on the button beside the recordsource with the dots on it and you should be able to add your new field.
