Jay,
If you are using table buffering then you can use the GetNextModified function.

return GetNextModified(0,"myViewAlias") <> 0 && return .T. if table was modified

If you are using row buffering then you can use GetFldState.

return !empty(chrtran(GetFldState(-1,"myAlias"),"1","")) && returns .T. if current record was modified in any way (deleted, recalled or changed)

HTH.
