"You probably have double buffering then. Where and how do you set buffering and how do you do tableupdate? Also it may help to do flush. Did you try to commit your changes, exit the form, wait a bit, then re-try?"

Hi Naomi,

Here is my code in the afterrowcolchange of the form.Could you tell me how to do a flush? I have tried everything, Naomi, not just what you asked me above..Don't know where and when something's gone wrong, but it certainly does not seem simple...at least in my case!

SELECT vuepkg
TABLEUPDATE(.T.)
SELECT pkg
TABLEUPDATE(.t.)
<pre>

And the code from the view:
<pre>
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","SendUpdates",.F.)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","BatchUpdateCount",1)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","CompareMemo",.T.)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","FetchAsNeeded",.T.)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","FetchMemo",.T.)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","FetchSize",100)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","MaxRecords",-1)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","Prepared",.F.)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","UpdateType",1)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","UseMemoSize",255)
DBSetProp(ThisView,"View","WhereType",3)

However, this behavior is now on a standalone view also, not just in the form.In fact, I cannot exit VFP, because of the error "Update Conflict" !!!!

With best regards,

Steve
