rhlinux5.2/postgres 6.4.2, odbc 6.40.5xxxxx, win98/access97

many tables created and working fine -- able to modify, insert, etc. either 
directly into the table or through queries.

but now. . .

create table testing (
	f1 int4 primary key,
	f2 char(6)
	);

i link to the table in access97, open it by double-clicking directly on the 
link, and it comes up as a table that is not updateable (which also means 
that i cannot insert a record either).  The other tables linked still work 
fine.  any ideas?  i am trying to solve the problem of not being able to 
insert or update a table that has two fields as a primary key.  but it 
looks like something has gone wrong -- i can't even insert or update this 
simple table!

ok, it's working now.  i don't know what is going on, but my odbc driver 
somehow reverted to "read-only".  i had to uncheck those boxes (in both 
driver and connection) for read-only, delete the links to the tables, and 
then re-link.  i'm the only one on this machine, and i haven't changed 
those settings.  i think the solution is to make the front-end to this in 
something else besides access!  has this ever happened to you???
