QBE grid display for no results returned

[DayTripper]

I am a newbie just getting used to Access.
I can't see any similar posts on this group, so this is probably a really
dumb question.


I have a query which I am not sure is working properly.

The QBE grid displays the column headers only on returning the query results.
Other queries I have built which find no results show the column headers as
well as a blank row of cells as a return.

I am wondering if I have a problem with my criteria, or if in fact there are
no results to display?

Help really appreciated

The blank row of cells is where you'd add new data to the query. If you're
not seeing it, then your query isn't updatable.

If the query result is updatable then the query will show a blank row
for data entry even if no row has been returned that has data.

If the query result is not updateable, then the blank row will not be there.
