Update Query - Finding and Updating Maximum Order Number

I am trying to pass the maximum order number from a table
of orders into one record only in another table. I created
an update query and created the following:

Field: next_fpo_no
Table: OrdersTable
Update To: Max([ord_no])

It tells me, "You tried to execute a query that does not
include the specified experssion 'next_fpo_no" as part of
the aggregate function." I understand what is telling me
yet I don't know how to get around the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

The query works as it should in Access. Could anyone direct me to some sources that describe solutions to what is likely a common problem? The strange thing is, I have another update query for a different db on an asp that works just great. Is there...

I want to be able to generate SQL statements that will go through a list of data, effectively row by row, enquire on the database if this exists in the selected table- If it exists, then the colums must be UPDATED, if not, they must be INSERTED.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
