>In the View Designer, you checked the box to Send Updates, and you identifeid the key and updatable fields? After you append the record and add data, you then either have to move the record pointer to another record in order to fire off an implicit TableUpdate() [if your view is record buffered], or you have to issue the TableUpdate() function. See VFP help on that function.
