Looping thru a table problem

M

Marguerite Hall

I've done this before...but for some reason am having a problem today. I
want to set a value in one field in every record in the table.

Set Value
New Record
Run Macro

I'm only looping 20 times and getting a message that a macro can only call
itself 20 times.

Marguerite,

It sounds like you should be using an Update Query, and an OpenQuery
action in the macro to run the update.

Thanks. That worked.
