But now I am getting a "Function Requires Row or Table Buffering mode (Error 1586)" Buffering is set to 3. The UPDATE statement will update more than one record since each invoice can have multiple lines. I'm not sure if that is an issue. The key fields for the tblSales view are the invno and line_no fields. In the "Connection Designer" under "Data Processing" the Batch Processing and Automatic transactions are checked.

Anthony,

I am having a similar issue myself. Did you ever get any resolution on this?
