Question #1

    Try to drop table OLD, and then CREATE SYNONYM OLD FOR NEW     See "Server SQL Reference" for details on synonyms. It should work with     no need to develop a new form

Question #2

    If you have Forms Designer, open your form with the Designer, create a     text item or whatever suits your new attribute, place on your form window,

    open the properties of the new item, go to the Database set of properties and

    map the new item to Base table NEW, column AAA.

Hope this helps.
