I am currently working with an ACCESS 2003 database. It was already created
prior to me using. I am trying to create 2-3 addtional boxes within the face
plate (the screen I enter my information). I researched how to add columns
and followed the instruction. It looks like I created the columns with the
names I wanted but they do not show up onto the screen I enter the data from.
HELP!
 
Do you want BOUND or UNBOUND textboxes? Bound would mean that you want it to
be connected to a field in your query or table. If that is the case, it
should be in the field list of your form and you could drag them onto your
form. If you want unbound, that is textboxes that are not not connected to
the query or table that drives the form, you will have to set the control
source yourself OR have the wizard build it for you and assign the control
source. Or the control source could be a formula if that is what you are
trying to do.
