I add a new field to a table but the new field does not
show up in the field list. Can I do something to make the
new field appear?

The field list is nothing but a guide to show you the fields in the form's
RecordSource. If new fields are not being picked up then your form is not bound
directly to the table but is using a query and that query is selecting specific
fields rather than using "SELECT * FROM...". You'll need to modify the query
that the form is using and add in the new table fields. Then they will show up
in the field list.
