The order of fields in the form differs from the order of the fields in the record source in Access 2007

Symptoms

Microsoft Office Access 2007, when you drag a field to a form, the field order in the form differs from the field order in the record source. This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:

•	Drag a field from a table in the record source.
•	You drag the field to the form in Layout view.

Reason

This problem occurs because the order in which fields are displayed in the record source of the table is independent of the order in which Access 2007 returns fields in.
