>I came across this problem years ago and I don't recall the proper syntax to fix it. The issue is simple, after I have updated the current records with =tableupdate(.t.) command. The data remained unchanged, and if I stepped thru the codes it worked. I think it was a browse issue and I would be appreciated for any comments and suggestions to fix this problem.

Mathew,

You need to trap the result of tableupdate, e.g.

if not tableupdate(.t.)
   =aerror(laError)
   =messagebox(laError[2])
endif
