Perhaps they can't work with views, at all, be it local or remote, but only with tables?
In my experience, 'tis better to keep your fingers away from the standard form builder. It may have improved in more recent versions, I don't know - but the framework (or class libraries) on which the older forms are built were so primitive, that they serve only as a demo or instructional tool, not as a "real" framework.
