subform not allowing additions

Post by Pat »

Access 2003.
I have a form/subform where the subform is not allowing additions. There is no blank record t the end of the subform.
The DataEntry is False
AllowAdditions is True

What other condition(s) do I need to look at?

It's ok the query behind the subform is not updateable. I believe it works with an Access BE but it is not on SQL Server BE.

If the query is not updateable, you can't add records.

The query was updateable with the Access BE, but not with a SQL Server BE, at least that is what it appears to be.

See See this post for the solution.

Does the table being updated have a unique key field? I ran across a similar situation that was related to no primary key in the SQL table.
