Please help!
I believe I have covered all bases with this problem, ok
except one which is why I'm writing. I have an Access
2002-2003 database with several forms locked for
editing. I've checked each of these forms to be sure my
Allow Filters / Edits / Deletions / Additions are all set
to yes, Data Entry set to No (so user can modify
existing), and checked each field to verify Enabled = Yes
and Locked = No. The only thing I can think of is that
each of these forms has an ODBC link to a SQL query in
another db. However the information gathered from that
query is locked down as it does not need to be modified.
Would that lock me out of all other fields? What about
the JetPack download Microsoft is pushing?

Thanks in advance!
 
If the recordsource for the form is a non editable query, then naturally you
cannot edit any of the form fields. I suppose you could still expect to
edit unbound fields, but to what purpose ? Where will the data go you edited
?
