What does the error message [Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Updating/Deleting data in a linked table is not supported by this ISAM mean?

0

When you try to update or delete records using ODBC on a database that was created from a text document, you may receive one of the following error messages. [Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Updating/Deleting data in a linked table is not supported by this ISAM. The ODBC text file driver does not support DELETE and UPDATE statements, because ODBC depends on a unique key index to determine which record to update or delete. The text file has no such index; therefore, the only allowable modifications are newly added records that use the INSERT statement.
