>>>There is at least a problem with raising an error in a CursorAdapter while saving. If not having a TRY CATCH in place around the TABLEUPDATE(), it will make the calling method/function dead. So for safety reasons, I wrapped it in a TRY CATCH. If it returns .F. you still can examine AERROR().

The .AfterUpdate is called for each record written back to the datastore - and in the lResult
you see if the record saved correctly. So finding the offending record gets easy -
or you log of each record in .beforeUpdate and finsih the log line in AfterUpdate depending on lResult.

So more info is already available if tableupdate fails.
Other errorhandling is tried at the cursoradapter level.
