Set the  display mode to  Datasheet mode.
Select the columns, shift+ right click and select "Freeze columns"
Save the Form.

If you want to make sure it is always that way:

Private Sub Form_Load()
personname.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdFreezeColumn
companyname.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdFreezeColumn
End Sub
