Hello Oscar.

Is this a single user app (so far)? I mean what are the changes that another user really has the table header locked?

Are you saying that you can issue a TABLEUPDATE on the dirty view, it returns true, and the buffer is still dirty? Are you using TALBUPDATE(.T.,.T.,"MyView") to ensure that your TABLEUPDATE is acting on the view you think it is? Are you doing the same with GETFLDSTATE?
