Using ASP and Access is it possible for me to update recordsets in two
different tables from data collection in one page? Basically, I need
user input on 1 page that contains multiple form field areas and upon
submit it updates the records in two different tables. Any advice,
direction, or suggestions are appreciated.
thanks

It's easy if you use sql statements for updates rather than recordsets.
There is nothing preventing you from executing as many sql statements as you
desire.

I did forget to mention that my two different tables are in two
different databases as well. Does that matter? I have a page that I
wish to pull and display data from two tables in two different
databases. Then I want my users to be able to edit the fields and
upated the records. Make sense?

No, that doesn't matter at all. Why would it? Just open a connection to
each database and construct and run a sql statement to perform the
updates.
