It returns .T.

What I described above (previously) works for the remote view that I have saved from an earlier session. But if I try to create a new remote view, I continue to get the error every time I try to exit a changed record!? Occasionally when I open the remote view for the first time and edit a record, it will give me the message that " is busy", or something like that, leading me to believe that it is attempting to write changes. After a getting the message a few times, it will allow me to move off the changed record. It will actually take that change (in the browse window anyway) and any subsequent change gives me the error. When I close the browse, all records are back at the initial settings.
