Objects wont let me enter data

[APH]

Hi
I have created a query which involves 4 different tables. I have then
created a form based on the query. The form is essential a contact form,
but with a check box and date field. For some reason when i try to click in
the tick box, or enter a date into the date field, nothing happens and i
cannot update the record.

can someone tell me what basic mistake i have made

Thanks

Alex

The first thing to check is to open the query and see if you can edit the
fields there. If not, then the query isn't updateable and you won't be able
to edit them in the form either.

Thanks Wayne, in fact the Query recordset was not updatable. I have done it
another eay using a sub form which is working. Thanks for your help
