message from =?Utf-8?B?Sk1vcnJlbGw=?= on 17 May 2004
I have a form where users enter data, which is updated to tables; from which users print reports. After using the Upsizing Wizard to create a DB in SQL Server (which sits on my pc, for testing purposes), I'm not able to enter data in one of the tables; but can in another.

Any blatant reasons for this?

tia, once again.

And to add to Van's comments Access really, really likes a RowVersion
(old name timestamp).

Yep. When the Upsize Wizard offers the Upsize_ts (Upsize_TimeStamp???), I
always accept it.

Have you checked whether there is a PK Field in the Table?

Yes, every table (3) upsized has a primary key assigned to it. I just finished going through the Upsizing Wizard again and ran into the same error message when trying to add records to a form: "You can't go to the specified record." The Add Record buttons on the form, and the main toolbar are also inactive.

I just noticed that the form that is working properly has a data source of a _table_ whereas the form not working has a data source of a _query_. Which begs the question; are other Access objects upsized the way tables are?

Is there an SQL tutorial that I can go through?

thank you for all your support

Are you using Access Database (MDB format) or Access Project (ADP format)?
 
=?Utf-8?B?Sk1vcnJlbGw=?= replied to Van T. Dinh on 19 May 2004
MDB format

I'm working around the form issue for now.

Invalid SQL Statement. Check the server filter on the form record source.

What's going on here?

Well... I wouldn't recommend the ADP Project.

Microsoft recently advised that the preferred method is stil MDB format with
ODBC-linked Tables from the SQL Server.

Note that the SQL syntax is *different* from JET SQL syntax. If you use
ADP, you WILL need to check ALL Views / SP that the Upsize Wizard creates
for you. You will also have to re-create those Queries that the Upsize
Wizard can't handle. In addition, all SQL Strings in Forms / Reports / code
will need to be check.

This is NOT easy if you are only familiar with JET SQL.

Thanks for the advise, it is much appreciated.
