Order of fields when in add new record form is upside down when you create a db structure from scratch #782

  1. Create a new db structure from scratch.
  2. Try to add a new record to a table
  3. Notice the the add new record form is back-to-front - the autoincrement ID is the vary last field, etc. This is very annoying when you have a long table as the the later fields (which appear first on the form) are usually very minor things. The form always seems to be the correct way around when a db has been imported rather than created from scratch.

We've encountered this before. I thought we already had an issue for it, but I can't now find it.

This seems to happen when the first record is added to a table. This means it's most obvious with databases created from scratch (because you will always add the first record to their tables via the ORDS interface). However, I've just tried uploading an empty table (i.e one with field names, but no records), and the same thing happened: the order of the fields was reversed in the Add New Record form.
