Jose,

The only completely reliable method I've found to do this is to lock the record in question. Something like this:

PC1: Update field

REPLACE Table.Field1 WITH {15/01/1999}

PC2: Get Value
RLOCK()
UNLOCK
? Table.Field1

I don't check whether RLOCK() succeeded in this example. If you absolutely have to have the latest value you'd want to ensure that RLOCK() returned .T.
