I had some fun with this as well!

The Stored Procedure does not get fired when using Append Blank.

* ID, FNAME, LNAME, MNAME
SELECT viewNames
APPEND BLANK

* viewNames.ID = 0
REPLACE fname WITH 'John', lname WITH 'Jones', mname WITH 'Percy'

* this will save the record to the actual table
* This will also call the Stored Procedure
GOTO RECNO() && or try TABLEUPDATE(.T., .T.)

* viewNames.ID = 0
* table Names.ID = 123

= REQUERY()

* viewNames.ID = 123
? viewNames.ID


Have fun!
