Hello,

I am trialing the product and am hopeful that it can me integrate my finances in Quickbooks and a production database that is being developed in Access.

I have have installed the QODBC product successfully.  I can for example modify Vendor information and see the information propogated both ways.

However, I'm not having the same luck when it comes to 'Items'.  I can create a link table of the information from quickbooks.  Most information is propogated, however some information is missing however.  For example:  Items of type service do seem to link to their description while Inventory Items do not.

More importanly, I cannot propogate changes made in the link table to QuickBooks.  If I change any field in the link table, upon trying to save that record, I get the following error message:

ODBC--update on a linked table 'Item' failed.
[QODBC] Not supported (#10003)]

When looking at messages, in the QODBC setup dialog, I see the following:
2006-10-17 04:44:03 QODBC Ver:  7.00.00.194 *********************************************************************************************************************
IsAService: False
SQL Statement: UPDATE "Item" SET "Name"=?,"FullName"=?  WHERE "ListID" = ? AND "EditSequence" = ?
Error Modify not supported on this table in BuildXMLHeader

Please let me know if this is a known limitation of the product ( I could not find any reference to it on the web), if this is some sort of limitation of the trial, or if this is a problem with the new version of the software. 

Best Regards,
Matt Behr

The ITEM table is actually a read only view that's a combined list of all Item tables in QuickBooks: ItemInventory, ItemNonInventory, ItemOtherCharge, ItemInventoryAssembly, ItemService, ItemFixedAsset, and ItemGroup; with minimum common fields. You should be using one of these tables instead of the ITEM table.

Note: Not all columns in a table are writable. See: Where are the schema rules for using QODBC? How do I use sp_columns? for the rules.

Thanks for the prompt response.  I will look at your solution this evening.
