I created a table and form using the table and form wizards. I then added a
new column to the table. How do I add that new table column to the form?

Best,

Goto the Design View for your form

View > View Field List

Drag and drop the new field onto your form design and
position where you want it to be.

Save form.

If the Record Source of your form is the actual table, the new field
(column) is already available. Simply create a new TextBox or other
appropriate control on your form and make the Control Source of that control
your new field. If the Record Source of your form is a query, add the new
field to your query, create the control and set the Control Source.

and make the Control Source of that control your new field.

Thanks, that got it. I was trying that yesteday but didn't see the new
field in the drop down list. Must have missed it.

Best,
Christopher
