>I have a table with three fields, including one logical. I want to change the logical to .T. for every record that contains a unique entry. I've tried REPLACE MyTABLE.FIELD3 WITH .T. FOR (SELECT DISTINCT FIELD2 FROM MyTABLE) but I get a "Function name is missing )." What am I doing wrong?

Hi Peter,

Here is a simple solution:

UPDATE MyTable SET Field3 = .T. WHERE NOT Field2 IN (SELECT Field2 FROM MyTable WHERE Field3)

Best regards.
