Welcome to UA forums.

Is there a reason you use a query?

Can you update any other field?

I used query, but ican't update all fields when i put it to my form but when i open it to queries object it can. why this happened?

Bind the form to your tables, not the query.

Not all queries are updateable; I am guessing you have a 1xM relationship between the tables.

You're guess is right, how do I bind them?

Use the form wizard.
After you select the two tables, it will give you an option for a form/subform or a single form (depends on the BY selection).

Play with is a bit and see which layout works for you.
