There are plenty of places on the web you can get beginner HowTo's on Access.

This is highly annoying problem with Jet/ACE. But try either:
- go to the query properties (click the background of the pane where the tables are displayed) and set 'Unique Records' to 'Yes'
- Option 1 is the equivalent of adding the somewhat strange looking DISTINCTROW keyword to the SELECT clause, eg:
UPDATE DISTINCTROW tblClient
INNER JOIN qryICMSClientCMFinite
ON tblClient.ClientID = qryICMSClientCMFinite.ClientID
SET tblClient.ClientCMType = "F";
This solves so many problems involving this error message that it is almost ridiculous.
