Error: operation must use an updateable query

Question

hello, After making the set up of the application(developed using VS 2008 and MS Access) the installation in another system works fine. But whenever I try to change the Password or id(there is a login window which the user need to access to get into the main window) it shows an error sayin "operation must use an updateable query". Can anyOne suggest the remedy?

Thank you, Indranil

Have you checked the permissions are the same for both set-ups? You will need a minimum of read and write permissions on the folder that contains the Access file.

To check permissions, it may be possible to right-click on the file or folder and choose Properties. The Security tab will show the details.
