When you deleted the field(s) did you delete them from ALL views on the form (and then save the form of course ;)? The Find Field dropdown only shows the view you are on. Do Form -> Current View -> Fields in View to see if the field is on another view of the form. or Check the Views tab (in the field's properties) and remove the field from all other views before deleting the field.

Please select a unique name for this field before saving the form. All other changes are not saved" The field names do not show in the Find Field List. My question: How do I remove these fields to reuse the database names. Fat and fast fingers created the problem. Michael F.
