Default Updating Forms after changing a Field in a Table to show a Combo B

I have a Table where I have changed the Combo Box Row Source of a field to
reflect choices in the drop down box. However when I go back to the Form
which I had previously created it does not show the drop down box or options
that I had created. How do you update the Form to show the changes?
I am using Access 2003

Thanks Much,

Tom Dean

Are you talking about a problem with designing a form or a problem in using
the form when your application runs? It's not very clear to me what you mean.

Default Updating Forms after changing a Field in a Table to show a Com

I already have and been using the table and the form. Recently I changed the
table to include a drop down box with options to select from in one field.
When I went back to my form it did not reflect the changes that I had made to
the structure of my table. The field name in the table is the same as in the
form.
