I have copied a form from one data base to other. I changed to read only form and it is not allowing me to add or edit any record? How to make it wriable form?

Open the Form in Design view and take a look at the form's Data properties. Check out AllowEdits (needs to be yes for you), AllowDeletions (may want to make this yes), AllowAdditions (should be yes) and DataEntry (probably wants to be no).

Look at the underlying query in the query view. Is is updateable?
