Hi,
I have an Access database Front End which use SQL server as a Back End. The two are connected using ODBC. Occasionally, some of the linked tables in Access go read only. I can't add or edit records. The only way I know to get round the problem is to delete the link and re-create it. Refreshing the link does not work. Can anybody suggest why this would happen, and the best way to fix it when it does occur?

Some extra info. At the same time it goes read only, the link loses it's primary key.


Thanks

Colin

Why don't connect to sql table directly with proper connection string?
