How can I create a DAP from a form that interacts with my data table? So far
the program is telling me that I don't have read access which I think I
understand, however I'm assuming that there must be some way to link the data
table and a DAP or else why would they have it?
 
To try to give you assistance, you'll have to tell us more information.

Where is the database located (on a server? web server? network server?
PC?)? How are you trying to use the DAP? What are you doing when you get the
error message about "read access"? How did you "create" the DAP from your
form?
 
I've been using DAP's for while and have suddenly got this error message:

Quote
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Microsoft Access is unable to create the data access page. The file does
not exist, or you do not have read access to the file."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've checked all the file permissions (create DAP is normally OK by default)

There is a Microsoft help page that mentions using a SQL statement not an
object for a combo or list box but I don't have any of those boxes. Also my
error message is slightly different to the Microsfot help page. See
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;293357

The other forms on the database convert to DAP perfectly, just not this one.
Any ideas why? I'm desperate to not have recreate the form from scratch!
 
It's possible that the form is corrupt. Create a new database and import
this form into it. Then delete the original form from your first database,
and then reimport the form from the second database. See if that might help
this problem.
