Arnold,
Each field in your view needs to have its KeyField and Updatable properties set with DBSetProp. If you're writing the view programmatically you will have to put all of this code in yourself. Better to download EView (by Erik Moore) from the Files area. Create your view with just the code you have here, then bring it up in EView. Eview will allow you to set all of the properties easily and export the code for your program.

Also, be sure that the underlying table is not buffered, or if it IS buffered that you save this updated table to disk AFTER running TableUpdate() on the view.

>>At the other hand,after I modify the Create SQL view by using parameterized view rather than refer to cursor like that...
>>
>>Create SQL Viwe Lookup_view as Select TABLE1.NO,TABLE1.PK from TABLE1 where TABLE.NO=?AskForNo

>>Everything is fine as well as the Update flag was correctly marked in View Designer.Is this a problem in Create SQL view statement pointer to a cursor ?
