Access Repeats First Row Of Data

[TomAtAgFirst]

We are using Access 2007 to link to SQL Server 8.0.2282 tables via ODBC.

When the data is displayed in the Access linked table, we see the correct
number of rows returned; however, all the rows contain the field data for the
first record.

Refresh All appears to fix the issue, but after scrolling down, we discover
after fifty or so rows of unique data, the first field data is repeated again.

Any advice is appreciated.

sounds to me like Access Linked Tables are the wrong choice for your
problem.
I'd reccomend moving to ADP and poof- all your problems go away.

Otherwise, you'll have to avoid certain datatypes in Access Linked
Tables (BigInt for example- my main datatype for some fields)

TomAtAgFirst,

Have you tried deleting the link and redoing the link?

When you created the link to the SQL Server table, did you identify the
Primary Key for that table? Follow Gina's suggestion, making sure you tell
Access which field is the Primary Key.

or move to ADP, then you don't need to do a whole ton of duplicated
work

Access Data Projects make all this extra work obsolete

that's why jet is depecrated and it always has been (the new version
of Access is NOT jet)
