As June7 suggested, there are valid reasons for doing this, as well as invalid reasons; you probably need to give us a more detailed explanation of what is involved, here, so that we can advise you better. But in general, to modify a Form to add new Fields from the RecordSource can be either a one-step or a two-step procedure.
- If the Form is based directly on a Table, you can go on the Ribbon to Design - Tools - Add Existing Fields and grab the new Fields and place them on the Form.
- If the Form is based on a Query, you have to go into Design View for the Query and add the new Fields to it, then repeat #1, above
