Hello list, I need some help on updating a field in a SQL Express table linked to Access 2k. I have written a query that pulls the employee cost per hour out of our accounting system and made a table in Access to store the data of approximately 45 records with 7 fields. I have an SQL Express table with approximately 146 records and 20 fields. In that table there is one field I would like to update with the cost per hour from the first table for each of the 45 records in that table. This should either be an update query or a simple read the first file and update the second for each record. Not being a code expert I can't find a good example of how to do this. In both tables I have a text field with the EmpNo. And the BW001(cost per hour)number field. The SQL Express table has ex employees and contractors which won't change. Which way to go because I'm not sure the update query would work as I would like it to. Help Please. Steve A. Turner Controller Mid-South Engineering Co. Inc P.O.
