>Hi, VFP7 user. I tried to run the following line of code. I placed wait windows before & after to debug. Here is what I get:
>WAIT WINDOW thisform.nextinv && returns 'S1123-4' (character string)
>REPLACE inv_hdr.invno WITH ThisForm.Nextinv && assigns invoice #
>WAIT WINDOW inv_hdr.invno && returns ''
>I am using buffered data. My values and fields are all character. What am I doing wrong (property value will not transfer to field)?

Did you try to issue a "SELECT INV_HDR" before the REPLACE command?
I experienced your problem sometimes, and this solved.
