A cursor is not updateable by default. Check out CURSORSETPROP for setting fields as updateable. Note that you must have a primary key, and have specified the primary key.

HTH. Let us know if you have questions.

>I have a form which displays a view. I am issuing an APPEND BLANK statement so that the user can enter data into any field to query-by-form. However, I receive the message "Cannot update the cursor". Is there a cursor property I need to set? The cursor was created by a SELECT INTO CURSOR statement.
