Access to SQL Convertion

S

San

I am really new to the SQL world, so please bare with me.

I have an Access dbs that works fine - it allows me to populate tables
from forms.
there are several forms, queries and tables
Everything works fine until I upsize.

Once the upsize is complete, I can open and enter data into the form -
but the data does not save back to the tables.

What am I missing ?

I have checked permission and everything appears to be fine?

It works in Access 2003 but not the SQL version.

Do you have primary keys defined for all of your tables?

If you do, then do you get any error messages?

I have a primary key on each table.
no error message shows.

I open the switchboard page, select a form from a button
fill in the data, exit the form

go to the table, to see if the data stored - nothing.

Are the tables in your front-end properly linked to your SQL Server backend?

Yes, I believe so. I can see the link from access to the SQl server.
When I open the SQL version, I can see the populated tables, but not
what I enter in via the form.

I checked permission on the form and the individual fields within the
form. All allow for update/addition.

I have built 2 other databases and they upsized with no problems.
Can't figure out what is wrong with this one.

Keep asking me questions and hopefully something will come to mind.

So no error messages. Do you have primary keys on your SQL Server tables?
You can't update them from Access unless you do.

Primary key in both access and sql tables

upsize showed no errors, I get no errors when I open the form and enter
the data.

all appears to be going fine, when I check the table - nothing.
