Firstly, what you are asking violates a basic rule of Relational data bases:

Avoid data redundancy. Ideally, a piece of data should be stored in only one place, so that
its value can never be ambiguous. When a value is needed, refer to the one place where it is
stored.

But since you asked, here is an update query that does what you are looking to do.

UPDATE Entry_table INNER JOIN Product_table ON Entry_table.Product_Code = Product_table.Product_Code SET Entry_table.[Product Name] = [Product_table].[Product_Name]
WHERE (([Entry_table].[Product_Code]=[Product_table].[Product_Code]));

You would normally just build a query to get the values of what you need for reporting and not have duplicate information in more than one location.

Suggest you read this white paper on database design.
