the result was
java.sql.SQLException: No data found
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Error in row
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Invalid cursor position; no keyset defined

anyone can help ?

[Added code tags - see UseCodeTags for details]

It looks like you haven't established the cursor position.

You can only update something that you have already retrieved or use a Where clause in standard sql/jdbc.

can you teach me what i need to do ?? i am new in this == was helping my friend to solve this problem.

Welcome to JavaRanch!

You can see an example here. If you're still having trouble post a small example that shows how you create the query and just update one field.

You haven't shown us what sort of result set you have, as this only works on certain types (after a quick read of the API)

thanks! Greg.
I type the exactly what the page have, but still give me the same error. the example :

updateButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){

int id = 520;
String city = "KL";

try{

statement = connection.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
resultSet = statement.executeQuery("select * from Employee");
resultSet.first();

resultSet.updateInt("EmpID", id);
resultSet.updateString("City", city);

resultSet.updateRow();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Record updated.");

}catch(Exception ex){
System.out.println(ex.toString());
}
}
});

I added resultSet.absolute(1);
but still giving me the error : java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Error in row.

Guys! thanks! i solved it

Good for you! It would be nice if you could explain how you fixed it. Then everyone learns!

haha. sure!

one of my friend told me the reason why error in row is because
1. One or more required fields were not filled
2. One of entered values do not conform field type (character values in numeric or date fields)
3. You trying to enter a value into field which is of Autonumber type.
4. You have a relationship between tables that requires you to put into foreign key field one of existing values from another table. If you put value that don't exist in another table you see the same error.

then i found there is one data type in access was wrong. so, after i changed it. it works!

Great, thanks! I hope you'll stick around and ask and/or answer some more questions here!
