Hello Everyone,

I have a form linked to a table. I added a new field to the table and now I want to include it in the form. This means I want to click the icon "Add exisintg fields". and then obviously select the new field I just added. Unfortunately, this button in the ribbon is not working. When I click it, nothing happens. Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks for your time!

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
could you have more than one thing selected somewhere

I actually just figured it out after hours of searching. If anyone is having the same problem, you need to do the following:

1. Press Ctrl+G
2. type the following into the screen that says "Immediate" at the bottom: CommandBars("Property Sheet").Enabled = True
3. Hit enter


I guess this means that I somehow disabled this feature previously.
