Hello guys, I would like someone to help me know the query used to enforce related data meaning same data in different table, how to enforce the first table to update others automatically with the same data.

For foreign key relations there's the cascading update/delete.

Can you show us an example of the problem?Cheers

I would wish to show you that, unfortunately there is no way I can attach the database I m developing. unless if you send your email address

I don't need your entire DB :-) , just a glimpse of what you are trying to achieve.
Do you know the relations-window in Access? There you can set the integrity rules for the table colums. You can specify that changes in one column cascade to other columns in other tables.

Yes I know the relationship, but I used to apply them the did not work. Now I would like to apply them in my queries table,using update query but did not work.

You really need to show WHAT is not working, otherwise we can't point you to a solution.
