[AccessD] FE to BE updating

It seems unlikely, in fact probably impossible.  All activity has to go
through jet and Jet will know that the autonumber is being updated.

Are you sure that the append query is not trying to append data to more than
one table?

Thanks John,

But no memo fields.  Could autonumber fields cause a problem in this
situation?


Thank,

Mark
