    I don't have time right now to download the sample, but you can probably find the reason here:

    If you mean the DP-CON query, it includes a GROUP BY clause. As noted on that link, it will not be update-able.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I mean to say is that FormDtl is the Master Table where data should be updated from Query2.

    Kindly help.

    To get more people to look at your DB you may want to convert it to something like Access 2000. Not everybody has made the plunge to 2007.

    I want to inform all members that the DB is in Access 2002-2003.

    DP-CON is for Duplicate Records finder.

    I want to update Table FormDtl from Query2.

    Kindly reply.

    I'm not sure it's mentioned in that link, but it is in others:

    When the query includes more than one table or one query, and the tables or the queries are not joined by a join line in Design view, you cannot update data in the query. To resolve this problem, you must join the tables correctly so you can update them.
