But the problem that I mentioned is when you move to other record (for example, if the user click in other line in the grid) then VFP will fire the TABLEUPDATE. And in this situation, if you use ERROR(), VFP will jump the RETURN .F. line and will update the record anyway (it shouldn´t happen, because I raise a error using ERROR()).

Hi Ricardo,

This behavior doesn't sound right. Looks like the error is handled by ON ERROR handler or by CursorAdapter.Error event and it is not propagated to CursorAdapter. Make sure your ON ERROR handler and CursorAdapter.Error event don't "eat" the error.

Thanks,
