I have a back end and front end. I added some new fields to the back end table and they are there. I deleted the linked table in the front end and re-added it and it is linked and is pulling in information except for the two new fields.

Where are they and how can I get access to them?
 
Hi

My first suspicion would be that you have amended one copy of the backend mdb and linked to another.

I have never seen anything like this, and I work with linked tables all the time. Have you yet closed the table and reopned it?

Otherwise, even though it sounds like you checked, I'm going to urge you to check the back end again--maybe by renaming the back end file and seeing if your front end is still linked to any of the tables.
