Unable to make form editable

[Blackburnjl]

Hello forum.

I have a form that I wish to have various fields editable. I have set Allow Additions to YES, Allow Edits to YES, but cannot change any field data in the form in form view.

Would anyone have advice or comments?

Any and all help is gratefully appreciated.



Thanks

1. If you Are using a query with joins,then the join may prevent edits.
2. some queries can be set to snapshot (read only)
3. If the backend is SQL server ,then you may not hav rights.

No joins
Where can I see the snapshot property?
No SQL backend.
