>Yes, and it's not my suggestion :), it's normal VFP way. The idea is that when you add record to a view, it's not in table yet, i.e. your interface can have Cancel functionality before you will issue Tableupdate() to send data changes from view to table.

Normal would be nice. Anyway thank you for your help. I'm slowly converting my form from using tables directly to using views. I've been have the most success with converting grids. I'll let you know how it works out. Again, thanks for you help. --lincoln
