Marco, VFP actually requires the underlying table, and since the changes are not committed you will not get them. COPY TO will copy the actual uncommitted changes to a table, but, if you want the cursor, not a table created, you probably can use a workaround like this:

**CATEGS table contains some categories info
**lv_categs is the local view with the table buffering
=AFIELDS(laCategs, "CATEGS")
CREATE cursor tmp_categs from array laCategs
SELECT lv_categs
COPY to array la_lv_categs
SELECT tmp_categs
APPEND from array la_lv_categs

HTH,
