Repeating group

I am working on a form which retrieves and submits data to/from an
access database. I need to make one of my access tables a repeating
group but do not know how. I need to pull data from this particular
table and I cannot seem to do it unless it is a repeating table, it
appears it needs to be a repeating table to do this but I cannot figure
out how to get my table to be a repeating table.

How do I force a group / table to be repeating?

Thanks,

As soon as you add a data connection to a database table (through Tools >
Data Connections... > Add...) your Access table or query should be recognized
as a repeating node. You needn't do anything special to convert them. Once
you've added the data connection, you just have to drag the repeating node
from the Data Source pane and drop it on the form as a repeating table. Or
was your question referring to something else?

The issue may be my table isn't repeating. I need it to be recognized
as a repeating table so I properly use it in my form. I have noticed
when I add some tables they are repeating while others aren't
repeating.
My question is, how do I set a table up to be a repeating group? I have
not been able to notice a setup difference between tables that are
labeled repeating and those that aren't repeating.
Thanks again,

What kind of table have you add that results in a non-repeating group? What
does the table look like? What kind of fields does it consist of? I haven't
encountered this situation before...
