It's been a while since I've used Access. My company uses MS 365 and I have an old Access database that I'm wanting to update. When I click on the Combo Box control on the Form Design tab and then click in my form, the combo box shows up but the wizard does not. I remember it use to ask which table or query did I want to pull the info from and which column, but no more. How do I get it back?

    Design the form. On the Form Design tab of the Ribbon, drop down the list of Controls. Make sure the "Use Control Wizards" box is checked.
