I'm using a database created several years ago with Access 2000, and it's
currently being used at the client site with Access 2003 (yes we'll upgrade
someday when client gets new hardware). The database is being regularly
used, and I have made very few design changes recently.
The current version of our database, doesn't allow new records to be added
(via the "Purchases" form; the Add New Record button with the "*" is
disabled. I also verfied that new records can't be added to the query this
form is based on "Purchases Query". I checked the properties for the
"Purchases Query" and the query hasn't been edited since Jan 2004, but we've
obviously been able to add purchases since Jan 2004.
The recent change I made to the database involved creating a copy of an
unrelated query and editing that copy. I also did a "Compact and Repair",
which I do from time to time. Is there a chance there's corruption causing
the problem? I've further tried to "Compact and Repair" but the problem
persists.
If curious here's the SQL code for the "Purchases Query"; it's pretty basic:
SELECT Purchases.PurchaseID, Purchases.StudentID, Purchases.EmployeeID,
Purchases.PurchaseDate, Students.FirstName, Students.LastName,
Students.PartnerFirstName, Students.PartnerLastName, Purchases.Discount,
Purchases.Memo
FROM Students INNER JOIN Purchases ON Students.StudentID=Purchases.StudentID;
Any thoughts on fixing this problem, or narrowing it down?
