OK John splain this one to me.
The reason I responded the way I did was I ran into the same problem. NO BUFFERING. Direct table access. Table was on a server, select 0,use table,
this was a table that held one field and one record, one field and record only , always going to be one field and one record. Its a datetime field of the last time a process was run. Rlock did not do it for me. The only way I could get the new value was to
a. close the dbf and open again.
b. add another record that was blank and toggle between the two.
I assumed it was because of buffering on the network and VFP's loading into memory. I guess I could have tryed a flush but did not think about it at the time. What else could I done?
