How can I unlock a table that the syseditor and a bound form will not update too?
The dos attributes are set ok and and I am on a single workstation not connected to any network. The table reads fine and does not
have any errors (GFE etc.) when verified.
Thanks
Bruce,
Can you verify the table is locked? What happens when to try to
update the table? Do you get any errors?
Let me know if you get a chance.

What sort of error is it giving, if it's giving one at all?
Can you write from code? What is in @FILE.ERROR and returned from GET_STATUS after the write?
I am not getting any error msg's that I can see. I do see a little
…locked… msg on the status line of the syseditor when I go to save
the record. I am wondering about my indexes and such. Any thoughts?

Is it a dictionary table?

It is a standard LH table. With a dict and data portion.
Sorry - are you updating the data or the dict?
Andrew,
The data. If I open a record through the syseditor, change/add
an attribute then open again the changes are not there. Hence, no update/write. I am hesitant to 'manually' remove the indexes at this time and would like to now how the system processes files during an update. Is it/it is possible that a 'control' record is messed up.?!

If you write a program to do the write is there a value in @file.error after the write?

Regarding File.Error variable.
No value, it is null. File.Error.Mode=0
File.Error='
File.Error.Mode=0'
File_Error='
File_Error_Mode=0'
"I'm so confused…"
bc,
To see the file error, use the MSG function:
Msg(@window, "error#": @file.error)
