>Right.. I thought same ;) but seems I realy silly today... or.... in my case - its update only 1 record in Table1 for current _tmp.id value. Whats wrong?
Denis,
table1 and cursor
_tmp has equal number of records.
Is Id field unique? Is so it's normal.
or I misunderstood your question.
Your code
LOCATE FOR table1.id = _tmp.id
IF FOUND()
replace table1.field1 with _tmp.field1
ENDIF
