Hi Bill,

I'm getting the same error writing to an Oracle table. I'm going to change the SQL Where clause from Key fields only to Key and updatable or key and modified.

If that doesn't work, I am going to ask the Oracle dba to define a view in oracle of the tables and create a VFP remote view of the Oracle View. Since I'm only writing to one Oracle table in the oracle view, the update should work.

I'll let you know how things worked out.

Have you put a trace on the ODBC driver and looked at the SQL statements that are being sent to SQL Server?

Good luck.

Paul
