>TableUpdate() is probably returning false. You should probably never do an =TABLEUPDATE() and instead do an IF TABLEUPDATE() to see if it takes. If the table update is failing, do an =AERROR(laError) and look at the laError array to see what went wrong.

Actually, I think the first error is "Cannot insert an empty row from a view into its base table(s)." The fields in the view are marked updatable, I'm supplying all the values in the INSERT INTO command prior to issuing the =TABLEUPDATE() so why wouldn't this work? I have other forms doing almost exactly this and all works fine. Any ideas why this is not working for a particular situation?

TIA
