    Form cell won't accept data

    Hi,

    I have a form that is based on a query that returns all the students taught by an indidual faculty member. There are two text boxes which I have added to the form bound to a table used in the query. However when I try to add data (attendance data) is doesn't accept it and simply "pings" each time I try. No error or anything. It is probably something simple but I can't figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Take care,



    Daryl

    The query (or that field) is probably read only:

    Thanks for the reply. I reset the source for the form and it freed up the cells.
