I'm trying to update one table with three fields from another(MTI Number, Error Code, Site). Both tables have the same field names and the common link between tables is via a field called MCR I've put them both in a query - converted to an update query and set the update field on the query to [Tablename].[MTI Number] etc etc
I get a message that tells me that i am about to update x rows of data but nothing happens - any ideas?
 
Does Access report that x num of records could not be updated?

Also check validation in the said fields in design view of the dest. table. Mybe something there is preventing them form being updated
 
All OK now - had already checked table fields for input mask etc. problem was me! I got confused with the 'Update to' line in the query. Thanks for replying though - Martino
