Well not that strange < S >.

What would you expect if you:
1) replaced the field with something else, then
2) replaced the field with the original value.
3) did the GETFLDSTATE()?

I think the way it happens is just the safer way, at some small cost sometimes (when it was updated with the same value).

cheers

>This is not a problem, just a surprise: if you replace a field in a buffered table with the same value that it already had GetFldState(-1,'alias') reports a change. Does anybody else find it strange?
