Have you tried an SQL recordsource with the fields called out in the order
you want to see them? Not positive this wil work, but it's worth a shot.

If the subform is based directly on the table, it will reflect the table's
field order. Try basing it instead on a Query selecting the fields in the
order you prefer (and, if there are fields that you don't need, just omit them
from the query).
