cannot update ODBC tables

A

Ann

I have an access database which have some linked tables
to SQL server.

But I found the tables data cannot be updated.

It seems read only.

How can I make the tables updateable?

Thanks in advance

Hi Ann,

Do you have permission to update the underlying SQLS tables or views? If
views, are they updatable?

when I opened the ODBC linked tables in Access, it asked
for SQL server login, I logged in by using sql systmem
admin and tried to update the table, but I cannot.

I do all the above operation on a workstation which is in
the same workgroup with SQL server.

Thanks for any suggestions

It sounds as if you don't have update permission on your tables. Ask
your database administrator for help.
