Dan, Weird I know, but from time to time this has happened to me. I have found that deleting the query and creating a new query (not cut n paste, but a brand new query) has cured it. Some flag incorrectly set in the "behind the scenes" sql code perhaps) Shrug! Try it and see if it works.

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!
