Hi Ken,

Not sure if this is the problem, but check your view and check the Update Critera tab in the view designer. Be sure the unique ID column is checked in the update column (the one with the pencil in the header) to indicate to update this column on the underlying table.

Thus, when I create a new record in the view, it gets the new id which then gets written to the table when I do a tableupdate. It is then used to update/modify the values of the view when changes are made.
