    Problem with control source

    I had initially bound a control (e.g.textbox1) to a field (e.g. username) in table1.



    Later, I had to modify/rename the field in table1 (e.g.user_name).

    Now, If I go to the 'control source', in the list provided there, user_name is not visible (but the earlier name, username is visible).

    I am able to see the user_name field by going to Add existing fields > Show all tables.

    Is there any way to bring the modified fields to the 'control source' list so that I can easily select them.

    I was able to solve this issue by changing the record source of the form to table 1.

    Property sheet > Select 'Form' in the dropdown list > Data tab > Record source > Select the desired table.
