UPDATE QUERY

[sbaud2003]

My qudate query is not running showing error : key violation. Although when i tries to run the query directly is doesnot show any error and it is updating the records. But when i am trying to run it from the form, due to LOCK violation table not updated.

my SQL is

UPDATE MEMBERS SET MEMBERS.EL = [EL]-[FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![TXTNOD]
WHERE (((MEMBERS.ACCOUNT_NO)=[FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![TXTAC]) AND (([FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![LEAVE_TYPE])="EL"));

How exactly are you trying to run the query from a form? Can you show us your code?

How exactly are you trying to run the query from a form? Can you show us your code?

I am using a command button and in the click event i have the followind code:

DoCmd.SetWarnings False
DoCmd.OpenQuery "QUPDATE_ELR"
DoCmd.SetWarnings True


QUPDATE_ELR is the query SQL is
UPDATE MEMBERS SET MEMBERS.EL = [EL]-[FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![TXTNOD]
WHERE (((MEMBERS.ACCOUNT_NO)=[FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![TXTAC]) AND (([FORMS]![LEAVE_UPDATE]![LEAVE_TYPE])="EL"));

Is your form bound to the Members table? If so, try saving any recod changes first before running the query.
