There is no need for NOFILER when you use READWRITE, VFP will create separate cursor.

SELECT .... INTO CURSOR ... READWRITE
IF ISREADONLY([Cursor])
   *** That should never be true
   USE (DBF([Cursor])) AGAIN IN 0 SHARED ALIAS NewCursor
   USE IN SELECT([Cursor])
   USE (DBF([NewCursor])) AGAIN IN 0 SHARED ALIAS Cursor
   USE IN SELECT([NewCursor])
ENDIF

not tested.
But I never had a problems with READWRITE clause.
