    Could not delete from specific table

    Query4 is the result from left joining of Query3 and Query1
    and I would like to delete some of the null data in query 4

    while I execute the following code
    DELETE DISTINCTROW Query4.*, [working hour] AS Expr1
    FROM Query4
    WHERE (((query4.[working hour])=0));

    I get the warning of "Could not delete from specific table"

    can anyone help, thanks.

    At a guess, query4 is read only:
