I tried to update a column in a table (tblReservedPart) from a query (qryF4101) using Update Query. Here is the code:
UPDATE tblReservedPart INNER JOIN qryF4101 ON [tblReservedPart].[PN]=[qryF4101].[PartCode] SET tblReservedPart.strProductLine = [qryF4101].[IMGLPT]
WHERE [tblReservedPart].[PN]=[qryF4101].[PartCode];
I received an error "Operation must use an updatable query." I am not updating the query. What is the error complaining?
I have a DB where I run two queries every week that extracts data from a Datawarehouse and appends records to a table. Then i run an update query that updates a policy status on the same table the appended records are added to. For some reason this week when i try to run the update queary i get the following message:
Operation must use an updatable query.
Anyone familiar with this error? The table in not read-only and no other users are in the db
UPDATE DISTINCTROW MVADMP_SECURITY INNER JOIN Activity ON MVADMP_SECURITY.CUSIP_NO = Activity.[CUSIP#] SET Activity.[Wire Date] = [BK_ENT_DT] WHERE (((Activity.[Fannie Mae Loan #]) Is Null));
which works fine in the production environment. However, in the test database, I get an updatabale query error.
The Activity table is a table that is local in each database, while the MVADMP_SECURITY table is in the back end and is used by both the test and production environments. Both Activity tables have the same keys and indexes. I have write permissions for Activity table in both environments, while no one has write permissions to the MVADMP_SECURITY in either environment.
I have tried both copying and importing it into the test environment and the result is always the same; updatabale query error. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
I have a query which performs a calculation calculating totals of many fields linked by BikeID This is not updatable due to the calculated field. Now i want to join this query to the BikeDetails table to create a form. So this means that i would have all the data from the table which i can update and the calculated field which i cant. But when i join the two tables/query all the data becomes non updatable.
Can someone tell me why this query is causing this error? I don't understand it:
UPDATE 1_2_06 SET ROLE = (SELECT ROLE FROM UserRoleData WHERE USERNAME=ASSIGNED_TO) WHERE EXISTS (SELECT ROLE FROM UserRoleData WHERE USERNAME=ASSIGNED_TO);

It's says it has something to do with permissions...
I set writing & reading permissions for the db and the directory that contains it through contorl panel->Administrative Tools->Internet Information Services
I have no "security tab" when I rightclick->properties the db file or it's directory even though the file system is NTFS
in spite all these when I rightclick->properties the directory that contains the db I see a "read only" square marked in the general tab-attributes, when I try to unmark it seems to be unmarked but when I rightclick->properties again it's marked again...
My problem has now moved on to a form issue which means no one has been able to answer is in the queries section of the forum as there is no way around it using queries so i hope you can help. All information is available on this thread. Thanks, Sci http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=100376
I have a query in Access which I have always updated no problem until today. I tried to update the usual fields and it says "This recordset is not updatable". Does anyone know why this would have changed and how I can get it back to updatable?
Ok ive been having this sort of problem for a while. Ive been trying to display updatable and non updatable data in a datasheet form. The problem is that i couldnt update any of the details with a calculated field in the table. Therefore i have put the calculated field in a subform thanks to someone on the forums request(sorry i cant remember who it was). After referencing the subforms text box i can display the correct information in form view however i cannot display in in datasheet view without expanding the subform [+] for the form to do the calculation. I need the form to go through all records once it opens unless anyone has a better solution. Hope sumone can help, Thanks Sci
I'm beginning to lose the will to live over this one. I've been merrily developing a large application (ADP) in Access 2000 and 2003 over the past 5 years. The size of the ADP is now around 30MB and it contains the following quantities of objects:
23 modules 424 forms (409 with modules) 296 reports (284 with modules)
My problem is that whenever I use the decompile switch and then recompile I get the dreaded "The Save Operation Failed" message on saving the code and the whole ADP is then rendered corrupt. My only option is to create a new ADP and import each object type (Modules first, then forms then reports) separately, compiling as I go. This seems to work OK but when I open a file I've been working on in Access 2000 on an Access 2003 PC it seems to decompile it by itself and then won't compact/save. Does anyone have any ideas about this? I've searched Google and can't come up with any reasonable suggestions.
Code:Private Sub iProduct_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer) If DCount("*", "Products", "Product = " & Me.iProduct) > 0 Then MsgBox ("Code Executed Successfully") End IfEnd Sub
I keep getting the error 2001: you canceled the previous operation and I don't know why.
'Products' is the table name, 'Product' is the field name and 'iProduct' is the name of the comboBox on the form.
The code below is from a form named frmWorkorderComplete I use to append the tblWorkordersComplete table with data from the fields in the table tblWorkOrders. I'm trying to prevent duplicate entries in the tblWorkOrdersComplete table. To do this, I create a unique identifier for each record to be appended by combining the "ordered", "company", and "salescategory" into a string which is inserted into the "wonmbr" primary key field of the tblWorkorderComplete.
The following code is used in the subroutine to check if a particular wonmbr has already been appended. However, I keep receiveing the error: "Runtime Error 2001- You cancelled the previous operation" EVERYTHING else in this sub routine works fine when I remove the offending code:
If DCount("[wonmbr]", "tblWorkorderComplete", "[wonmbr] = str_wonmbr") > 0 Then MsgBox "Workorder Already Appended!" Exit Sub Else

I have a table 'Project Details' to which I have recently added a new field 'Last Invoice issued'. This field is a text field with a lookup and will default to 'No' for new records being added. When the related record is updated in my 'Invoices' table, I have set up a query to change 'Last Invoice Issued' to yes. This is all working fine, but it requires all the records in 'Project Details' to contain 'No' already in order for it to work. As there are over 1000 records in 'Project Details' I made a list in Excel of the right number of no's and copied it in. Most records were fine with the exception of 127. I can edit any of the other fields from the 'Project Details' datasheet or my data entry form, but when I try to edit one of the 127, I get a DataType mismatch error. I can't understand since the records are all in one table and have exactly the same DataTypes set up for each field, why I can edit some and not others? Is there some other place where DataType can be set up that may affect some records and not others?
I have tried to copy my table to post here but when I do that, I get a 'Index or Primary Key cannot contain a Null value' error due to the (New) record having the default values already in but the primary key not being filled until I save,.
I have the following simple query. The query joins the data in two tables and I use it in a bound form. This has worked fine for a couple of years, but today the query is saying it is a non-updatable recordset. This stops users changing any data in the form. I have tried the following to no avail:
compact/repair recreate the query copy the whole database into a different MDB file
Is there something silly I might be missing??? I did not changed any of the table structure this problem has just appeared.
Code:SELECT tblWorksOrders.*, tblLocations.* FROM tblWorksOrders INNER JOIN tblLocations ON tblWorksOrders.WOLocationId = tblLocations.LCNIdentifierORDER BY tblWorksOrders.WorksOrderNo, tblWorksOrders.InstructionNo;
I'm struggling with a non-updatable query issue. I have a table at the category level that should allow entry but it needs to pull in information from another query. In this 2nd query, its doing group by/counts/sum's from an item level table. From reading about the dynasets and trying to fix it, it looks like this the major problem.
The item level table has information that is changing based on other user input so I don't think using a make table would work. I tried setting the queries/form to dynaset (inconsistant updates) but no luck there. It still wouldn't allow any changes to the entry field. Any clue on how I could get around this?
Main Table Category Entry A. . . . ._____ B. . . . ._____

The user currently manual checks the Use Part? box but would I would like to automate with an update query. I have this query that needs to be updatable but has a group by and min to get the correct results. I plan to run this query by another update query to update the table, but its currently not updatable. Is there a workaround or does anyone have another scheme to go at it. Here is my current queries.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]) AS [MinOfAlt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] FROM [t_BOM Part Cross] GROUP BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] HAVING ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND ((Min([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1]))>0)) ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Customer ID], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Assembly #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #];
I have another query that I used a SUB SELECT ON THE [Alt Unit 1] but does not group the other fields to get the results but it is updatable.
SELECT [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Use Part?] FROM [t_BOM Part Cross] WHERE ((([t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #])=[FORMS]![Parameter]![Quote #]) AND (([t_BOM Part Cross].[Alt Unit 1])>(SELECT MIN([Alt Unit 1])>0 FROM [t_BOM Part Cross]))) ORDER BY [t_BOM Part Cross].[Quote #], [t_BOM Part Cross].[Line #];
I recently inherited an MS Access application. To bring it up to company standards, the data needed to be rehosted in DB2. The screens remain in MS Access. To accomplish this with no/minimal code change, I followed these steps:
1) For each access table, I created a DB2 table with the same structure. (table name and field names changed based on company standard) 2) Created a link table in access for each DB2 table 3) removed each Access table and replaced with a query (based on link table) with same name. The query maps field names us AS clause.
The reports and screens paint fine but any update operation results in a 3073 error. 'Operation must use an updateable query'. There are no joins or aggregates in the query.
As I usually concentrate on building the tables and fields in my initial stage, and do some experimenting to analyze the relationship.
However, when I'm done, I find it quite a hassle to go manually through the tables to add description to each field for documenting.
What I would like to do is create a query that will list all fields and its description. Now, I have found codes to retrieve either table or fields properties, including the description property, but am kind of stumped on how I can make it a SQL statement so I can create a temporary query, which will be pretty be one time thing, that can read all fields' description and allow me to type in it, save it.
If that's not possible, I suppose I could write code, using Allen Browne's example, that would loop through the fields' description, debugging to the immediate window and prompting me if I would like to add something to the blank description. However, this isn't exactly greatest as I need to see all fields so I can be sure I'm giving good descriptions.
I figured someone may have had this same problem and maybe came up with a solution?
I have a form that stores information about attendees for a given class. In this particular instance, I only store one address, one contact information both which are optional. I've used subforms, but that has bought problems (one notable problem is that one field from tblAddress is required for *any* attendee, which is county they resides in, whether they give out an address or not. At this point my VBA codes to work around this is simply too buggy and a major hassle.
Therefore, I am now considering two possibilities: 1) make a unbound form and do everything manually without any subforms or 2) create an updatable query somehow that can pull together the needed information. The latter, I'm not sure if that is feasible, so I'm asking you about that.
Address and Contact Information are kept as a many side tables, and different queries I've made in past only is either non updatable or partially updatable, which does no good. If anyone can show how one can retrieve only one record from the many side and keep it as updatable, that'd be great.
I was hoping someone on this forum might be able to help me.
I am trying to update a table with info in another table, using a nested query.
strSQL = "UPDATE tblTemp SET AdminNum = '" & cboAdmin.Text & "', " & _ "Size = (SELECT Size FROM tblEquipList WHERE AdminNum = '" & cboAdmin.Text & "')"
DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
cboAdmin is a combo box on my form that is populated by tblEquipList.AdminNum.
When run this gives me: Runtime Error '3073': Operation must use an updateable query.
The SELECT statement works by itself, and the first part of the UPDATE (without the nested select) works by itself, but not when I combine them. I also need to update other things in the same manner in which Size is being updated, but when I can get this to work it shouldn't be a problem just added the updates for the other fields in there.
Thanks in advance, Jeremiah
Edit: Also, I figured I should add that when I remove the SELECT statment and put in a number (IE: Size = '400'), the query runs just fine. So I know the problem lies in the nesting, but am unsure how.
I am asked to display this, "List the Client Numbers, Name, and Balance fields in the design grid. Sort the records in desending order by the Balance Field." AND THIS: "Display the top 25%"
I need to know how to show the top "25%" when I press run, in the datasheet without manually having to arrange them.
I have tried to create a form page that when filled in by a user updates a database.
However i get his error messge
Code:Error Type:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation must use an updateable query./tpvsite/RegisterUser.asp, line 62
In my page it aligns to this line objRS.Update. Which i think means there is a problem with my database as anyone any ideas how to fix this. (all my tables and fields are correct)
I am trying to update rows in an access database by retrieving data from dynamic text boxes created through a loop. I keep getting the error message: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Operation must use an updateable query. My code is as follows:
Dim myInsertQuery AsString
myInsertQuery = "INSERT INTO tblTestQues (Answer) Values ("txt" & loop1);"
Dim myCommand2 AsNew OleDbCommand(myInsertQuery)
myCommand2.Connection = MyConnection
MyConnection.Open()
myCommand2.ExecuteNonQuery()
myCommand2.Connection.Close()
Please help or contact me if you need more information. Thanks in advanced.
