access query cannot edit data

[amyb]

I'm working on a linked Oracle table that I pull into Access. I can edit data while in a table, however, when I run a query on the linked Oracle table, I cannot edit or add data to the query. I have checked properties to check to see if the records are locked and they aren't. If I just import the linked table, I can then edit and add data to the query. I don't want to do this, because I'm trying to have realtime access for users. What could be the matter?

I think you have to run and update or and sql query to do that.....

I have tinkered with linked tables in access and there is considerable differences between access's sql and mysql and oracle sql.

Thank you NooNoo, I will see if that works tomorrow at work. I've been banging my head against my desk with this. I've looked at some books without any success. :thumbs:
