The tables did have primary keys. There are several bit fields, and all were set to allow nulls, with false as the default value. I changed all the fields to no allow nulls, but that did not solve the problem. Anything else? Thanks!

Do you have primary key defined in the linked table and do you have any bit fields that allow nulls? -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Dan Waters Sent: Friday, January 29, 2010 4:18 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: [AccessD] Ask Again? - Updateable Query - Access vs. SQL Server I have an Access file which contains a LEFT JOIN query between two tables. If the query uses table links to an Access BE, the query is updateable - which it should be. But if the query uses ODBC table links to a SS Express database on my PC, then the query is not updateable. To compound the mystery, the same Access query using ODBC table links to a standard SQL Server database with the same tables IS updateable! Does anyone know what's up with this or how it can be fixed? Thanks!
