Aaaargh!  After ten years of Access I had no idea this could be done. Maybe
that's called being focused; maybe not!

Thanks!

When you view data in a query you can move the fields around, slide this 
field left, then this field right etc.  If you SAVE the query after 
that, then the fields when viewing data are in a different order than 
the fields when viewing it in design.  When it is a big query (lots of 
fields) it is very confusing trying to find a specific field in design 
view when it "should be" next to this field (as seen in the data view).
