Default Forms using several tables

I am developing a form with several tabs. When I go to use a field on a
different table, all my field references apparently also change to the new
table with a "Name?". I understood that I should be able to use several
tables with forms, so what am I missing?

Tab pages do not each have their own record source. There is only one per form.
You could put subforms on ech tab page though.
