Yes, then you musn´t use the select, you need an updatable view, issue a CREATE VIEW (usually a local view), make your changes, and then do a TABLEUPDATE, and all your changes will be in your table, if you dislike your changes do a TABLEREVERT. If you dont get up with this I'll send you a sample.

Review the solutions in:

DO ? (search the solution.app)

and see the trastade sample,
