Downloaded template from MS - having issues

S

Steve

It's been awhile since I used Access, but I am really confused.

I downloaded a simple Access template from Microsoft that maintains Contact
information. It had several fields that I did not need, I therefore deleted
them from the table. When I click on the form, those fields are still there.
I click design and click on the boxes related to the fields I deleted - I
try to delete them or remove them from the form, but can not.

I thought you just needed to click and delete them. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Steve

Click to expand...

Do you get an error message?

Is the database file marked as read-only?

If the form's recordsource is a query, be sure to edit that query and
remove the fields that no longer exist in the table.
