Form frozen

[Guest]

Hi

I cannot enter data as the form is frozen. It opens, I can view the old data
but as I try and enter new data it won't do anything.
Any ideas?

Here are a few things to check:
In the Form's properties:
Allow Additions - Should be Yes
If you can't edit existing data:
Allow Edits - Should be Yes

If those are correctly set and you are using a query as the record source,
it may be that the way you have it defined, it is not updatable.

Thanks for your reply.
It's set up YES for additions and edit. Though how can I establish the form
is not updatable via a query?

Open the query by itself and try to make a change in a field. If you cannot
make a change, then the query is structured so that it is not updatable.
