Let me first say that I am attempting this in VB, not VFP. There is a not a "Command Window" in VB that I know of. I can update the table in VFP, not problem. The data control I spoke of is a Common Control that comes with VB.
I can now Update the Table using the Data Control, but no not DAO code. I am not on a network. Table is local. My Table Open codes is:

Dim dbAPSS As Database
Dim rsCust As Recordset

Set dbAPSS = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase(App.Path, False, False, _
"FoxPro 3.0")

Set rsCust = dbAPSS.OpenRecordset("Cust2", dbOpenTable)

My probelm, still is when I use the Update method, I get an error message that Table it read only.
