>Hi,

What others suggest is fine if simple, but if you have some non-default view properties such as setting update fields, a good way to do it is to use the view designer to approximate your view to the dbc, then run GENDBC, cut out all the view code, paste it to where you want it, and then edit the view settings as needed...
