Thanks John!
Excellent point! -guess I'll just *have* to rename that field.

P.S.: Great signature!

>>Hello,
>>I have a view that I generate on-the-fly, and a character field called 'field_name' that is set as updatable with the DBSetProp() command, as are many other fields. All fields get their values updated as expected, except the one named 'field_name'! If I change the name to anything else, it works... Is this some unknown reserved word? If I create the view in the view designer with the name 'field_name', everything works fine - it's only when creating it in code.
>>Any other experiences with this?
>>Thanks in advance!
