Yep. Since I have no idea what the error code was doing, I could not assume that error code was not moving the record pointer. If you consolidate the data checks and use a flag so NO other code is called before issung the REPLACE commands, then you can be assured the record pointers are not being moved.

>>llCommit = iif(seek(valueb,tableb,orderb), llCommit, .f.)
>>llCommit = iif(seek(valueX,tableX,orderX), llCommit, .f.)
>>if llCommit
>>   * do replaces here
>>else
