It should let you add the new field to the existing view, unless like Fred
pointed out. if that field is a data type that is not supported by the AR
engine.. I have added fields in the past on the fly and have been able to
have my view for read the new field..
If the field is a supported data type, I would check to see if there is an
open known issue with AR system 7.1 Patch 7 or thereabouts with view
forms...

This is correct. I updated the View and then opened the view form to add
the field. It's not greyed out so it lets me choose "Fields from <MyView>"
but then it doesn't do anything.
I added a brand new view form and purposely left out the new field. Created
it, then tried to add the new field and it lets me.
Just doesn't let me do this with the already existing View Form that I
already have. I then added another new field to the view and I was able to
add this to my Brand New View form as well.
Looks like my old View form might be corrupted or something. It's pretty
old....

You updated the view and then opened the form to add the field? The list of
fields able to be added is generated when the form is opened in the Admin
tool.
Another possibility is you are using a type of field that ARS does not work
with.

I recently updated a view on the database with an extra field and I would
like to add this field to my View Form. When I right click on my form I get
the option to select a field from my view, but when I click on it nothing
comes up.
Are View Forms sort of locked out if you update your view? Do I have to
create a new view? (I did and I was able to include my new field), but I
would like to add this field to my already existing view.
