Updating a field in a MS access table with month(birthdate)

I have create a query to update the month from the birthdate field

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. DoCmd.RunSQL "UPDATE usrStaff SET usrStaff.[Birth Month] = Month([usrStaff]![BirthDate]);"

Two problems occur

firstly I want the update confirmation to not appear

secondly

where do you put the code (currently in a subform) to ensure that it actual update the filed and row you are working in

1) DoCmd.SetWarnings True/False will turn off and on the warnings.

2) If that subform is bound to the table, there is no need to use a DoCmd.RunSQL.

3) Having a Birthdate field and Month of Birth field is redundant and you should drop one of them.
