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.
