ADOConnection

I used to initialize my Database Connection as follow:

With Region_Data
.Mode = adModeReadWrite
.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.3.51 ; Data Source = D:\Mdaisy\Mdaisy.mdb"
.CommandType = adCmdTable
.RecordSource = “Regions”
.Refresh
End With

Where Region Data is an adodc

After Reviewing the Crystal Report 8.5 Complete Reference Book, I got the following Connection.

'Open the data connection
Set ADOConnection = New ADODB.Connection
ADOConnection.Open "Provider=MSDASQL;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=Millenium Database;Mode=Read"

I think that this is a better way, for I don’t have to specify the database path, I just do it in the ODBC Engine.
Well, and as you know things went great with the report.
N.B: In my application, which was a trial one, I didn’t have but the report.

For me to enhance my search and knowledge, I wanted to add a form which get, and update data in a table.
I added the following codes:

' Open the data connection
Set ADOConnection = New ADODB.Connection
ADOConnection.Open "Provider=MSDASQL;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=Millenium Database;Mode=Read"
N.B: I am not opening the connection twice, I am doing it once at the initialization of the application.


With Adodc1
.Mode = adModeReadWrite
.ConnectionString = ADOConnection
.CommandType = adCmdTable
.RecordSource = "Group1"
.Refresh
End With

Adodc1.Recordset.MoveFirst
Text1 = Adodc1.Recordset!Description

Things went great, I am reading the records, navigating in them, and every think is great.
I wanted to save changes, so I added the following:
Adodc1.Recordset!Description = Text1
Adodc1.Recordset.Update
Similar to what I used to do before.

Here I got the following Error:

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] must use an updateable Query.

So what do you think the problem is, and how must we solve it, I don’t know if I am right, but is this gone do any think with the problem:

ADOConnection.Open "Provider=MSDASQL;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=Millenium Database;Mode=Read"

ADOConnection.Open "Provider=MSDASQL;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=Millenium Database;Mode=Read"

Change your mode. You only opened fro "READ" access...
