I enterd the cursor properties as you stated and and when I use TABLEUPDATE(1,.t.,"tablename") I still get a return of .F. and aerror() shows once again the error to be 'No update tables are specified. Use the Tables property of the cursor.'
I am using a remote view, and I set the cursor table property as
CURSORSETPROP("Tables","owner.table"). This cursor is called using sqlexec()
You said to use the schema name within the CURSORSETPROP("tables","schema.tablename.field). What would be the schema name?
