Create an Edit Form

[emax6]

I would like to create a form that allos me to retrieve a row of data et where I could change some of the fields.
I created a query with a parameter and linked the form to this query.
Up to know this doesn't allow me to do what I want.
How can I do this?

How are ya emax6 . . .

Its possible to have an uneditable query!

Open the query from the query window . . . if the add new button

has that disabled look

then the query is uneditable! . . . and the data will be so in the form . . .

See Ya! . . . . . .

Hi,
Must be something else.
1 - In theQuery windows it is as it should be and when I run the querry a window popup to ask me to fill the parameter.

2 - The form should retrieve the data using the query above. When I open the form it does ask me to fill any parameter and show a form that should be filled. Identical to the forma I have to add data.

To make this form I copied it from the form I use to add data. Therefore the problem seems to be a set up I need to do somewhere since if I recreate a new form from scratch it's working.

Any Clue (The form has numerous field and I woul like to avoid to recreate it from scratch)
Thanks

Thanks,
Found what it was. The form was not set for data entry as you seems to direct me to.
Thanks.
