Hi Nick,

The view code looks ok to me. The following line should be different (but I was correct earlier so I don't think that is it).
>xxx = tableupdate(.t.,.t.,'employee')
xxx = tableupdate(.t.,.t.,'LV_EMPLOYEE_U')

Can you just use the view from the command line, change a field, and tableupdate(.t.) and see if it works?

>The only thing existing in my data environment is only one view called lv_employee_u. Here is the following code that I am trying perform. Notice, when I do update on lv_employee_u, that is where I am having the problem. I even do a tableupdate on core underlying table called employee:
