>When i open myview, and replace some values, those values get also replaced in the base table. without using tableupdate()
When you use row-buffering (2 or 3), only a single record can be in the buffer at any one time. In that case, TableUpdate() is done implictly as soon as you go to another record.
Either change to table buffering (4 or 5), or make sure your form explictly saves or discards changes before changing to another record.
See CursorSetProp("Buffering").
>the only thing i have not done according to your logic is make the view updatable using dbsetprop() and cursorsetprop() but I thought I've done that thrue the use of the view designer.
That's right, the view designer takes care of the details. The only thing you have to do is CursorSetProp("Buffering"). You can also change options in the DataEnvironment.
