I have created a layout in using InDesign CS3, exported as a pdf. I then used Acrobat Pro8 to create a form with fields. Saved as a form for use via reader.
Problem, need to update Indesign layout, but dont need to change Acrobat fields. How can I bring in the new Indesign layout and update without recreating form fields again. Is there a layer? function for future editing that I'm missing?

All you need to do is replace the page (Document> Replace Pages) and replace the old page with a new one. Then, adjust whatever fields need adjusting, and you are done.

Tim's exactly right. You may need to drag the fields around a bit to adjust to your new layout; but that's about it! Very simple to do...

Acrobat is probably the program I use most often and I'm learning more every day.
