    Unbound Form not allowing data input

    Good morning everyone.

    I've been working on a database for the past month, with Access 2010, and have been coming up on problem after problem.

    So, now I've decided to go at this from a new angle.

    I have 4 tables with one-to-many relationships set up from tEmployee->tDeposits; tEmployee->tSales; tEmployee->tPumped.

    Everything on the form is in the form of a textbox except for the Employee name which is a combo box with a macro to open up another form if the employee name is not in the list.

    My form is unbound and has all four tables included and in Record Source I have
    Code:
    SELECT tDeposits.DDate, tDeposits.BDeposit, tDeposits.Charge, tDeposits.Debit, tDeposits.Credit, tDeposits.Coupons, tDeposits.Certificates, tDeposits.Received_On_Account, tDeposits.DError, tSales.Native, tSales.Non, tSales.Other, tSales.Other_Sales, tSales.HST, tSales.Received_on_Account_Sales, tSales.Customers FROM tSales INNER JOIN tDeposits ON tSales.ID = tDeposits.SalesID;
    That was automatically put in when I created the form.

    Now, when I go into Form View, the only thing that allows for any change is the Combo box. I can't enter any other data in the form.

    Thank you for your time.

    The problem is your query is not updatable. You will probably have to use subforms rather than trying to do it all in one form.

      That's what i thought as well. I'm going to give this a try. I only wanted to do it in one form w/o subforms because I'm a neat freak and it just looks messy with 2 or 3 sub forms.
      THank you
