    Unable to delete records in form

    Good Day All,



    Form "Student Attachment Details" has its row source as a table "Student Attachment Details".

    In the table any record can be highlighted and deleted by mouse right-clicking and selecting the delete menu item; however, for the form when a record is selected and the mouse right button is clicked the delete menu item is not selectable, it is shaded out.

    This condition seems strange. Can anyone assist with solving this problem?

    • Is the Form "Student Attachment Details" only Bound to the Table "Student Attachment Details"
    • Is the Table "Student Attachment Details" related to another Table?
    • Is the Form "Student Attachment Details" a Form or a Subform?
    • Is Allow Deletions set to Yes?


    It might be a good idea to zip your file up and attach it to a post, so we can lay hands on it.

    Thanks for your response. But before I can send the data I must let you know that the problem does not exist not that I am working from another computer.

    I therefore have to check other thing.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
