I opened a query in an Access 2003 db that I haven't used in a while.
In the design view, I can see all the tables, but I can't see the
"field list" - I think that's what it's called - the section in which
you add fields & criteria. There are up and down scroll buttons, but
if I scroll to the bottom, I still can't see that section. There are
no left or right scrolls. I've looked all around, but can't seem to
figure this one out!

Perhaps you shoved the Splitter window all the way to the bottom.

I'm still stumped though I've figured out part of it. I received a new
laptop since the last time I looked at this database, and I've noticed
that I see less of Access screens with the new laptop (not sure if I
can change this). So I'm wondering if the window was sized to my old
screen and I can't see some of the left/right scrolls or the splitter
window. However, I have minimized the window, and tried resizing that
way. I've scrolled all the way to the bottom, and I still can't find
the "field list" section. I've tried compacting and repairing. Out of
ideas.

All set now. When I minimized, I found a 2nd up & down scrollbar. Was
able to resize everything into one window.
