I have a form with a combo box that pulls records from a query. I wan
the users to be able to enter data into a few of the fields of th
record that has been pulled up. The text boxes seem to be locked and
cannot enter data in them. The 'Locked' property is set to 'no' s
changing that wont help. Is there any way i can make a few of thes
fields editable

I suspect that the Query upon which the Form is based is not
updateable. Try opening the Form in design view; view its Properties;
find the Recordsource property on the Data tab; click the ... by it. A
query design window will pop up. Open the Query in datasheet view -
does it have a *> new record icon? If not, see the online help for
"Updateable" or post the SQL view of the query here.
