Access deleting updated records from update table

1 New Member
Recently, I have a table that I use to update a master table. When I run the same Update query that's been successful in the past, most all of the data in the fields in the update fields has been deleted from the update table and nothing is updated in the updated table. Why would this problem start occuring and is there a remedy? thanks!

Can you post your query?

I'm not quite sure how an update query could delete a record, at worst it would set the fields to a null value/empty string.

Access Version? If you have 2003, you should download all service packs.

Hello all, This is going to be a rather lengthy "question". I have an Access 2k database, separated front end/back end. Front end copies are on about 30 workstations and used frequently during the work day. The backend has a table called CLIENTS with approximately 6000 client records. Changes to data in the table are made via a frontend db Form which has CLIENTS as its record source.

I'm wondering what are the disadvantages of using Access as front-end? Other that it's not...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
