Update form using data from 2 sources

[misterted]

I am trying to develop a form that displays the customer name from another
table. I do not want to update the customer name, just show it on the form.
When I make a select query, I cannot update anything on the form. How can I
make it work? Can I use 2 data sources to populate the fields of the form and
have 1 data source updateable?

Please help.
