How to put Value in field

P

I have a variable called Age. How do I put this value directly into a table
called Patient_Registry.

By executing a SQL statement. Using DAO ...

CurrentDb.Execute YourSQLStatementHere

.... or using ADO ...

CurrentProject.Connection.Execute YourSQLStatementHere

What goes in 'YourSQLStatementHere' depends on information that is not
available to me, such as whether you are adding a new record or updating an
existing one.

BTW: It is generally best to record date of birth rather than age. Date of
birth doesn't change, age does. Given a person's date of birth, you can
calculate their current age whenever needed.
