Hi Folks,

I am trying to get an appended record in a view to looked like it was an existing edited one. The current GETFLDSTATE(-1) returns 34444444, and I want that to change to 12222222. However, every time I try to SETFLDSTATE() a field, I get a Function argument, type or count is invalid.

Although it says nothing about restrictions in the Help file, my experiments suggest that 3s can only be interchanged with 4s, and 1s with 2s. Is this correct, and if so, is there another way to fool VFP that a new record is an existing one?

TIA, Kevin
