Updating attached SQL Server Tables
1) you should make a reference to the db and use it for the recordset such
as:
set db=currentdb
2) when you linked the table, did it prompt you for a primary index column?
Are you sure it is a table and not a view
3) does your Query have outerjoins etc that cause the recordset to be
readonly? (e.g. is your SQL syntax correct)
4)Have you thought about a passthrough query?
5)have you thought about creating an ODBC workspace, then a Connection
object, and executing SQL against the Connection (you will also be able to
do transaction processing)
