I've created a data entry form that inserts information into several
different tables. I have found that several different fields within the form
will not let me type anything in them. Some fields are working and some are
not. I have checked to make sure that Additions and edits can be made to the
form. Can anyone help me with this?

A *single* form updating multiple tables - unless they're on Subforms
- sounds like a flawed design. What is the form's Recordsource
property? What are the Control Source properties of the offending
controls (forms have controls, tables have fields)?
