I have a view that I created using free tables. However, any time I try to MODI VIEW this view, it pops open a Open dialog box that tries to list the tables in the database (which there aren't any because they're free tables). When I cancel that dialog, the View Designer opens but all of the information about my view is gone ... it's just as if I'm building the view from scratch again.

Is this normal? If, instead of modifying the view, I just USE it, it works correctly, which says to me it knows what it's filter condition is and what tables it's supposed to be working with.

The other wierd thing about the view is that if I use the view and do the following:


? dbgetprop("flzip","VIEW","TABLES")


It does not list any tables for the view.

Am I missing something?
