Dynaset, inconsistent updates
Hello. I've recently upgraded to Office 2007...
Prior versions of Access allowed the user to update tables (via update queries utilizing another query) without getting the dreaded "not updateable" error. You would accomplish this by changing your query property settings to "dynaset/allow inconsisent updates". Queries in Access 2007 don't allow for this, correct? Or am I missing something? Is the only alternative to create numerous temp tables, and then use those temp tables in your queries as joins? Thanks. -- Craig |

It's still there... are you looking at the Query Properties or the Field Properties (won't find it there)? -- Gina Whipp 2010 Microsoft MVP (Access) "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "Craig" wrote in message ...

Dynaset, inconsistent updates
Gina...
Thanks for the reply. No, I do not see it. When I open a 2003 Access query and right-click the query properties I get a dialog box with a "general" tab that includes several options, including "recordset type" that you can toggle to "dynaset", etc. I don't see that in Access 2007 queries. When I right-click in the query I get a dialog box with the "general" tab, but only 2 options ("source" and "alias"). Do I need a service pack, or is there something else I'm missing? Thanks. -- Craig "Gina Whipp" wrote: Craig, It's still there... are you looking at the Query Properties or the Field Properties (won't find it there)? -- Gina Whipp 2010 Microsoft MVP (Access) "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "Craig" wrote in message ...

Does it say... Property Sheet Selection Type: Query Properties General ....what kind of query is it?

No problem...thanks for the assistance.
So, my understanding is you can't update data in a table (linking a query to a table) with inconsistent updates, as you could in version 2003? thanks. -- Craig "Gina Whipp" wrote: Craig, Oh dear...
