I have recently migrated from SQL2K to SQL2K5 and have a number of front ends in MSAccess Forms that worked fine with SQL2K but are not working with SQL2K5. I am able to connect and view the data in the SQL table using a file DSN but I am unable to update the records from the MSAccess form in SQL2K5. I have checked all of the permissions and have even given the Login dbo privs. I have also allowed remote access through the Surface Area Configuration Tool. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
What are you using as the front end?, Access Project or Access mdb? If it's a Project I don't think they can update in SS2005
I've just completed a big Access/SQL Server 2005 project, leaving the front end as an mdb. There are a few quirks, you can't use Views only SP's and pass through queries, but it still works well.
|||I am using Access mdb. Sql tables are Linked tables in the Access mdb. Thanks for the advice. I'll ensure that there are no views involved.|||You should run one of your queries from the query design grid, try to make a change to the returned result set, if you can make an update , you know it's a forms based problem not permissions.|||Same result using the Design Grid. I am able to display the contents of the table but unable to update or append records from the grid. WHen I try a simple update query I get the error "Operation must use an updatable query".|||Problem solved
. For some reason when I originally created the Linked Table I was not prompted to identify a unique key in the table for updating. Recreating the Linked Table with the unique fields identified solved the problem.
