Hi everyone!

Can anyone share a code on how to update a record in an MS Access database using DAO?

Say for example, I have an MS Access Database named friendsdob, with "ID"(autonum), "full_name", and "dob" as columns/fields. let's say there is a record in ID number 7, and i want to change/update the Name in the "full_name" field. What should be the appropriate code?

Thanks in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

By the way, I'm still using MS Excel to house the form that I'm gonna use because I'm still learning Visual Basic.
