I am doing an append query. When I run it, the data shows up in datasheet view. but when I actually try to do the append to the table, I get a key violation error. How would I fix this and do I need to explain my primary keys and relationships before I can get help?
 
just a hunch.

When you designed your table you may have fields set with the property "Allow Zero Length" = "NO"

If this is true, then when you run your append query if you has some null values for those fields the query would fail.

The two fields being appended to are primary keys and number fields. Thus, there is no "allow zero length" field. Do you have any other ideas?
