Recognizing tables

I have one form with controls for data entry for 11 different tables. I've created a query that links all the tables together by one common field. In the form design
view, I drag the fields from the field list from all 11 tables onto the form. But when I go to the from view, and try to update my tables the text boxes have this in it(#Name?) and I get a message that says "Control can't be edited;it's bound to unknown field". What went wrong? I'm also trying to create a combo box that gets its data from one of my tables(Client Names) and when I make a
selection to update another table (Clients). But when I drag the field from the field list, and place it on the form the combo box Wizard never pops up and I have the Control Wizards selected.
