Can't enter data in a subform

[Peggy]

What have I done wrong when I can't enter data in a
subform? The cursor blinks but won't enter data. I can
poke around and finally get it to work but then I can't
remember what I did so I keep making the same mistake.

Several possibilities; the most likely is that the Query upon which
the subform is based is not updateable. You might also have set the
Allow Edits property of the Form you're using in the subform control
to False.
