Default Adding New Fields to an existing form

I'm using ACCESS 2000 and have set up a form which is now
in use. I'd now like to update my form with some extra new
fields which I have added to the table. However they do
not appear in the field list and there is no option to
import them. Can anyone help???

Thanks in advance

Sarah

Is the form based on the table, or on a query which is based on the table.
If a query, then you need to add the fields to the query first, and then
they will appear in the field list.

Is the table a linked table? If so, you need to refresh the link
(ToolsDatabase UtilitiesLinked Table manager)
