Field sort is alphabetic by field name
 
In Form, selected fields for that form appear in the order they are selected & it doesn't  seem able to move name fields into any logical order
The result is that in my Address Form, I may have something like the following
 
add 2
add 1
company
URL
item
contact
btel
ST
city
ctel
Zip
 
instead of something logical like:
 
item
contact
company
add 1
add 2
city
ST
Zip
btel
ctel
 
This makes entering data by form a little weird for me but I'm probably missing something here.

In "manage forms", try dragging/dropping the fields around like you'd like to see them, then apply. Then close/then reopen the database to see the modified order.

That worked just fine, KeithB. Thank you. Sometimes I feel stupid. Sometimes I feel extra stupid. This is one of those times.
