Yup! Thanks. Funny thing is when I modified the structure of the table to put the rule in, I was getting the same error. When I unchecked the option to compare the rule against existing data when exiting the MODIFY STRUCTURE, I did not get the error. From then on the rule worked. Now there's a GOTCHA! [VFP6 SP3]

>>I have several tables where I store a
check sum value to a field based on values of other fields in the same table. I am trying to use the Update trigger on these tables to replace this CheckSum field with an integer value. Whenver I do, I get a
Can not update the cursor error when I issue a
replace ChkSum with lnChkSum command in the SP trigger code. I can kind of understand this in that this is a record level data verification trigger. Is there any way I can use a trigger to replace a field value in the record being updated and validated by the update trigger?
