Hello again! I am trying to do an update query updating a table with the values from a query. I get the message that "Operation must use an updateable query" so it won't run. But I am not trying to update the query! I'm just wanting to use the values from the query to update the table. Also a weird thing is I tested this with some test tables that had fewer fields using a query off the table for the update and it worked. eg > update TBL2 inner join qry_TBL1 ON TBL2.field1 = qry_TBL1.field1 SET TBL2.field2 = qry_TBL1.field2 This worked but my real one doesn't. The only difference being more fields. Any help much appreciated again. Bridget Doran Biostatistics Consulting Lab University of Minnesota A444 Mayo Building 612.626.7009 bridgetd at biostat.umn.edu
