VFP8 SP1.

However, I have some other problems. For instance

UPDATE (lcAlias) set iPrimary_Flag=0 where iPrimary_flag = 1 doesn't seem to work 100% reliably when lcAlias is a view name. My colleague suggested to put
UPDATE DBF(lcAlias)..., however, I found situations, where it doesn't work either saying the file (some temp name) doesn't exist.

REPLACE FOR command also didn't work consistently...

And right now we're wrestling with another page (Guarantor page), which really doesn't want to behave...
