I have a form that was creating using Access 97. The user can
successfully input the data, but it doesn't reflect on the screen that
it was inputted, but a query of the table will show the new data
exists.

What happens, specifally, when it "doesn't reflect on the screen"?

There's a chance that the form has its "Data Entry" property set, which
would ONLY allow data entry, not display of existing records.

How can I check the "Data Entry" property? The user can scan items
into a special field called "Part," but this doesn't show up below on
the screen. It use to populate a field below "Part," but now it does
not.

Data Entry peoperty would mean that the form opens blank. It may be that you
just need a button to requery the subform The syntax would be something
like:

Me.NameOfSubformControm.Form.NameOfTextBoxForPart
 
Sorry, but I'm having trouble visualizing what you're working with.

Care to elaborate?
