Microsoft Access Write Conflict

  • I added a new column 'Reclaimed' attr bit(1) to a table Designs_Detail.

    Now, when our programmer refreshed the Microsoft Access Links, and whatever record is changed, a dialog box appears stating 'Write Conflict'.

    The dialog details 'This record has been changed by another user  since  your started editing it.  If you save the record, you will overwrite the changes the other user made.'

     

    Once again, this only happened since I modified the table.

    Thanks for your help, Richard

     

     

  • Make sure the bit-field doesn't allow nulls

  • Richard,

    To add to Jo's reply - you should set the default value to 1 or 0.

    Bits are 1 or 0 and should not be Null.

    As you've added a column you should replace all records with some value.

  • Thank you both for your timely feedback...that fixed my issue.
