re-opening form does not produce previously entered data

I'm using the 2002 (10.6771.6845) SP3 Access program.

I have a form that will not show previously entered data. It has about 45 fields. I will call it the "parent" form. The "parent" form was at one time linked to another form, but I deleted the link since it is not needed.

To troubleshoot it, I saved it with a new name, the "child" form. Then I created a table with two fields. I entered data in the two fields of the "child" form. I closed the form. I re-opened it. The previously-entered data was not shown. I found the data in the new table.

I compared the "parent" form's characteristics with another form based on a different table, and found no differences. The "parent" form has no filters, and I have used it with and without a query based exclusively on its table with no change in results.

Any suggestions?
