Problem using DLookup in table-based form; table not updated

When I use DLookup (Access 2016) in a form based on table x to transfer field data from table y the data appear correctly on the form but not in table x. The field remains blank in table x. What have I set incorrectly?

It's difficult to tell without some code to work with. Where is your DLookup being performed, in VBA or in the ControlSource of a field? Are the results of your DLookup being put into a field that is Bound? If you have some code to perform this, would you post it?
